Idea:
|
Performance (To create a
video that’s similar to a concert performance)
Narrative (A video that’s
very similar to an actual film but relates to the lyrics of the song)
Conceptual (A video
containing a lot of metaphors relating to the song which creates a mood)
|
Illustrative (Images provide
a literal representation)
Amplifying (Repetition of
key meanings and effects to manipulate the audience)
Contradicting (Images
contrast with the music)
Disjuncture (When the
meaning of the song is completely ignored)
|
Music video cuts between a
narrative and a performance of the song.

Idea:
|
Dance
tracks that have abstract visuals, which follow the beat of the song but
don’t have a visual reference to human agency. This is usually performed with
the band members
|
Music
videos with a binary opposite; Good-Bad, Rich-Poor and so on
|
Within
each narrative there is usually a set of stock characters and these are some
of the roles

Charmless Man
The Pharcyde-Drop
I liked how the video was played backwards but the group had to act out their song in reverse to give it the effect that they're actually normal whilst everyone else is backwards. This is using a
I think its inspired us to have the band performing within the music video like they did in this one. I personally liked the idea of having the band having an effect on the story of the video and interacting with the band which in this case was the band driving the "charmless man" to edge and him eventually running them over.
