Transcript of Pop video analysis
Conventions of a pop video
Lewis Stewart
• If the lyrics and the video didn’t go well together, people would be less likely to want to watch it.• The video usually has a link with the lyrics so that the two make sense
as one product, therefore enabling the viewer to be more likely to remember it and enjoy it.• This then means that the artist(s) will gain money from the views the
video gets and people may also download their single from something like iTunes, and then also go on to buy their album.
Lyrics and video
Becky G - Shower Miley Cyrus – Wrecking Ball
Melanie Martinez - Dollhouse Lady Gaga - Applause
Editing the video
• For pop songs, the video is usually edited in a fast pace to reflect the pace of the song.• This then makes the song look a lot more happy and fun, as it creates
excitement.• If the aim of the video was to create sadness, there would most likely
be fade edits and the shots wouldn’t change so quick.
Costumes and props
• In the videos for pop songs, the clothing is usually bright to reflect how the song is fun. • These colours usually include green, pink and orange.• This then makes the video stick in people’s minds and they remember
the song so may end up buying it.• Because of the bright colours, it attracts the specific audience they
are trying to appeal towards.• Lighting also makes a difference to the video because a dark scene
wouldn’t create happiness.• Some companies put their products in music videos to get recognition
and to help sell their products.
