Research for music video

When researching and analyzing the different music video in relation to our genre of music there are various convections that stood out. As mentioned the song all of us came up with to use for this project

Getaway Car by Taylor Swift. The genre is pop, in which there are music videos of songs such as Drivers License and Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo. These give us a good insight into how in that category the specific usages of breaking the forth wall in the music videos. Using a lot of tracking and over the shoulders shots as well. In this specific genre of music we need to be drawn to the artist or what the artist is trying to explaining. Almost if not every lyric should be able to match part of the song, a visual representation. It can be as simple as a prop that correlates to the main part of the song, a specific costume that shows value to the character or the makeup that can really capture the emotion the person is trying to showcase. With all of those factors, people can see the depth of the music video. While analyzing the music videos as well, towards the sound there is usage of both diegetic and non-diegetic sound. Sometimes in the music video the artist can be seen listening to their own songs through headphones in the music video. While us as the audience may hear the score of the song instead. Dialogue is also done between characters in the videos, as in sometimes the characters will have dialogue between each other while the song is playing over it and that is all we hear. Sometimes the music videos will come to a pause and we hear dialogue between the characters most likely discussing about the song story/situation. Overall, in the pop/singer-songwriter genre they are various convections. We can see in various music videos in our genre and there are some that will mostly be included in our to have that true emotion and depth. The costumes and makeup will be some of the main factors as well. Due to how we feel that will convey much more of the story by giving a look at whom the characters really are in the music video. Towards editing and shots they will all be mostly surrounding the main character of the music video, it is the focus point of everything really. All of us want the music video as relatable and personal as it can be.
