Copyright Issues

I have created a Presentation in order to display my research into the issues of Copyright, so that I can fully understand the laws of using Copyright protected music for my music video.

Evaluating Screenshots

I have evaluated a few screen shots from the videos that have inspired us in order to pin point the exact features we like from each video. By using screenshots it has enabled me to view the features and consider ways to utilise them.

Theorist 3 - Steve Archer

Steve Archer is another theorist that I have researched, his theory argues that there needs to be a strong and coherent relationship between the narrative and performance in music videos. This however is a strong contrast to Goodwin's theory as he believes there doesn't have to be a coherent relationship but instead says that what is happening on screen doesn't necessarily have to match the lyrics. He says that the music video will reflect the genre of music. Steve Archer also goes on to say that a music video will cut between a narrative and performance from the artist/band. Finally he states that a choreographed dance might be part of the performance or something added to the video that will aid visualisation.

Theorist 2 - Andrew Goodwin

I have also looked at another theorist named 'Andrew Goodwin', I have created a presentation using an online presentation programme called 'Sliderocket'.

Carol Vernallis - Music Video Theory

Carol Vernallis - Music Video Theory from Paige Woods

I have created a Powerpoint then converted it to a 'slideshare' format in order to be able to upload it to my blog. Carol Vernallis is the first theorists that I have looked at, however I will also research other theorists that look at music video theory.
