Extension to the previous post:

The way Andrew Goodwin wrote his book 'Dancing in the Distraction Factory' in 1992, yet can be applied to music videos from the 1980s, shows how music videos form the 80s influenced him to write his book. For example, his first convention, Video and Genre, where the context and the look of the video both link with each other, as seen in Material Girl. This shows that this music video that I analysed in my previous post, can be seen as a resource for Andrew Goodwin, which he could have analysed and came up with his theory of Video and Genre. This shows 80s music videos to be highly important for his book, and could have set the stride for current music videos that we see today.

It has unconnected images that are played in time to the song and primarily suits the less mainstream styles of music, but does fit any style. I have also learnt about the 6 main conventions of music videos. 1: Videos and Genre: this determines the context and look of the video overall. 2: Lyrics and Visuals: This is where the lyrics and visuals of the song match each other. This is shown through Illustrative: where you can...
