MUSIC VIDEO ANALYSIS

Today we have analyzed music videos in class we have looked at narrative and performance elements of the some music videos. We looked at Wheatus - Teenage Dirtbag. We looked at the conventions of this video. The first element we noticed were performance shots of the band with close us of lip syncing with very stylized gestures.

This pleases audiences with the feel as though they are getting close to the stars of the video of the band. Most videos are not primarily narrative and mostly include band performances shots
