Unit 29 Music Video Production- The purposes of music videos

Blog post 3 To sell an idea of an artist – their attitude, their interests Video- Zef Side by Die Antwoord hXp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q77YBmtd2Rw&feature=player_embedded In the video they were being interviewed to start off with, each member had their own individual attitude as one was very quiet, the other very chatty and the last member was mainly agreeing with the chatty member of the band. When the song plays their attitude doesn’t seem to change much at all. The one who was chatty in the interview shows he is quite confident as wants to be centre staged and filmed more than the other two members. However they are just sitting on a bench and letting him do all the work which makes the video seem a little boring. I think that they could be self-produced and want to be famous but their chances seem quite slim. Luke Burge 26th April 2012

Blog post 2 To promote the artist as a live performer to encourage viewers to attend concerts / events. http://www.promonews.tv/category/live-music-video/ This music video was filmed live and uploaded on YouTube. The way its filmed makes you want to watch it live because you can see more and you are closer to the artist. Being there live entitles you to hear more and the quality of the speakers there will allow you to hear better vocals better. The music goes well with the lyrics and her voice which makes the song emotional. The song possibly has a big effect on many people. Some people would be drawn in to listening to the song depending on what mood you are in. In stages the song first appeared on the television programme Skins. From the people who watched the programme and enjoyed the song have gone on to listen to it via YouTube and download it. This would then make people want to go to see her live.

Blog post 1: •To promote an artist To promote a new song or album. Vanaprasta- Self Indulgent Feeling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msNENOtSAaM At first we see an old man downloading songs on itunes, he accidently comes across the band Vanaprasta and dislikes them. As he is stressed with the song playing he smashes everything in his home. This gives off attitude that shows that you could listen to this song no matter what mood you are in to cheer you up. The video also makes the song work perfectly and would be amusing to watch. I think that song has been carefully and well made to promote this band and the song. Luke Burge 26th April 2012
