Point 18 - Things to include

From my audience research I have come up with a few things which I feel I should include in my music video:

Expected from Genre: 

• Dance would generally be expected in this kind of genre - if not, syncronized movements to the beat (Would enchance the beat of the song)

Expected from Audience:

• My audience feedback showed that people like to see Color in music videos and lighting effects. 
• A story-line or hidden message also seems to get the interest of people.
• People have said that having interesting props can also grab good attention

Expected from Video:

• Perfectly timed lip-syncing
• Well made video
• Movement to the beat - no offbeat
• Range of effects 

Things I need to remember to include:

1. Use color and effective lighting
2. Have some kind of movement to the beat - perhaps dance
3. A hidden meaning within the song - as this would be a difficult song to find a meaningful storyline to
4. Interesting hand-props and stage-props
5. WELL TIMED LIP-SYNCING 
6. Good quality - steady camera 
7. Range of effects - perhaps between black and white against the contrast of the bright colors

Here is a link to Andrew Goodwin's music video theory. It is very interesting to see how Goodwin interprets different elements of music videos. He seems to capture different themes and show the stereotypical features in different types of music - for example, 'There are frequent references to the notion of looking and the voyeuristic treatment of the female body' - example being Miley Cyrus. Another example - 'There is a succinct relationship between music and visuals'.
