Comprehensively
explain the nature and purpose of music videos?
Music videos
for most of the time are broadcast on either on TV or on a different type of
platforms. Music videos that are broadcasted on TV include different types of
channels. The nature of music videos have changed from over the years, types of
music video channels include: E4; MTV; The Vault; Kerrang; Smash hits; BOX;
Kiss; Music 4; Classic MTV; Scuzz. All of these channels are good examples of
channels that provide music videos to different types of people who like
different types of genres, some of the channels listened also provide TV shows.
The companies
that provide the facilities of these channels like Sky, sky is a satellite
system which provides you satellite connection to the television which lets you
access these types of channels. Virgin is a cable connection, in some cases
faster than satellite connection because it saves time collecting data from a
satellite to then feed data in-between each other.
Another way
that you can view music videos include streaming services such as Netflix,
Amazon Prime, Now TV, Spotify, YouTube, ITunes. These services allow you to
connect to the internet and view either music videos or shows through the
internet this is normally faster than going to the TV rather than searching on
the internet. Netflix, Now TV and Amazon Prime are strictly only for television
and you cannot view music videos on there. Spotify, ITunes and YouTube these
are facilities that specialise with music videos. The different genres that you
can have from these different types of websites let you listen to different
types of genres such as Heavy metal and Classic, rather with television
channels which let you have a certain genre at a certain time.
The different
types of music videos that exist online such as VEVO and Vimeo. Vevo is a video
hosting service that is owned and operated by different types of sound
companies such as Google and Sony Music Entertainment. YouTube allows VEVO to
exist because it is owned by Google and google pays YouTube. Using VEVO is
easier to find a certain music videos. YouTube is not just stuck to just music
using you can view any type of video.
Artist such as
Duran Duran and Madonna made music videos by investing millions of dollars
trying to making a good quality music video. The goal of a music video is to
make you want to buy the album of the artist. By watching MTV. Until the
internet was made, all you need to do is download any type of song that you
would like from the internet and pay for the rights to own the songs. This made
the population go mad over artists such as Michael Jackson.
The goal of
different types of music videos are to increase the sales of the artist and the
record label to get respect to the artist. They would also get popularity from
different directors so then they would work on short films and make sure that
they are filmed in a good quality. This is also used to give the population
artist imagery. This also lets you enhanced the character of the artist, so
then they can sell merchandise of the artist. The entire point of a music
videos is to make the artist money and to continue to make them famous.
