Types of Music Videos

Image
Performance Based This is a performance based video as all members of the band are performing their song using instruments and singing in sync with the music and there is no narrative based story. The band members are shown on screen for the entire video using a range of shot types, camera movements and angles such as close-ups on the band members faces and instruments, long-shots of the setting, and zooms and tracks to keep the camera moving so the scene doesn't look as static. Narrative Based This music video is a narrative music video as it tells a story, there is only a short appearance of the members of the band and they aren't performing the song in any way. The story line shown in this video has no correlation to the song or the lyrics and is completely fictional. Concept Based This music video is unique compared to other music videos as it attracts the audience in with the variety of patterns and images rather than the artist performing their song u...

Footage from the Drama Studio

Below is a summary of the footage I captured in the drama studio for the swing dance/dream sequence. Within this video I have shown the clips taken with usable footage in them.

Poster Questionnaire Analysis

I made the following questionnaire to try and understand what an audience expects to see on a music promotional poster.  My target audience falls within the range of 15-25 and the majority of my respondents (60%) were from the 18-20 bracket. This age is right in the middle of my target audience so it should give me a valid insight to my audiences requirements despite having no responses from the 21-25 age range. Most of my respondents were female but I got a mixture of different genders meaning my results wont be one sided to one gender. These results seem to agree that the band name, album name and release date are the most important aspects to see on a poster and my audience would want to see an image that relates to the album or art work that is easily recognised rather than a picture of the artist. When creating my poster I shall try to incorporate these ideas and aim to create a strong continuity between my products. All of the respon...
