To gain an insight into the world of music videos as a class we watched a documentary aired on channel 4 showing a countdown of the "100 greatest music videos of all time". For this section of the blog i have been asked to look at four music videos which are all in different in thier genre of music, the representation being shown by the video, the type of audience the video is aiming at and how it communicates a meaning across to the viewer. I have prepared a short video clip to go alongside each of the videos, which shows me discussing all of these factors in a video presentation. The four videos I have chosen to analyse are:
1. Run Dmc vs Aerosmith- Walk this way (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIbHPs_M55Q&ob=av2e)
2. Queen- I want to break free (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYYL1vybRU4)
3. The Verve- Bittersweet Symphony (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx3m4e45bTo)
4. Fatboy Slim- Weapon of choice (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oF5cBoAV5Ys)
Great use of technology to show your understanding of the videos. You could also upload some stills from the videos and write some comments on particular shots or elements of the mise-en-scene that have inspired your video or given you some initial ideas.
