- To promote the artists and their music.
- Show the audience what the artist is all about.
- To give visual pleasure the viewers other than just listening to the song.
Music videos are mainly filmed and directed for the audience's pleasure as the artist makes every bit of the music video by following certain conventions depending on the genre and the artist.
For example between Cheryl Cole and Trey Songz the music videos will differ in many ways such as the lighting or effects they would use in their music videos. The use of camera may have different emphasis on different things or people in different ways and so on.
We learnt that MTV was first launched on the 1st August 1987 and the first music video to be shown on MTV was by The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Show. On 2nd December 1983 Michael Jackson’s Thrilller was the most influential pop music video of all time as it was a staggering 14 minutes long as not like any other music video done before, which led it to be aired twice every hour. Thriller cost a total of $500,000 to produce and it sold 9 million units. In comparison, we also looked at Lady Gaga's music video Telephone which featured Beyoncé. Compared to Thriller, Telephone is 9 minutes long but cost the same to produce $500,000.
