[REFLECTING] - Music Videos Introduction to A2

Introduction to A2 

In our lessons transitioning from AS to A2, we were given an introduction into Music Videos whereby we discussed what Music Videos are and the history of them. We watched a few videos which later led to a discussion about theory and the Idea of Visual Pleasure (Andrew Goodwin).

The first music video was produced in the 1970s, which was The Buggles -Video Killed The Radiostar. This video first aired on MTV on 1st August 1981 at 12.01. MTV helped showcase videos which helped promote songs.

We also looked at conventional features of a music video.
