TRANSCRIPT

Goodwin's music video theory

There is a relationship between lyrics and visuals:

In The Foo Fighters track Walk the lead man Dave Grohl walks through the streets all the way to the practise rooms. This corresponds to the track title and lyrics learning to walk again.

Relationship between music and visuals

Sigur Ros's Svefn-G-Englar uses a very dream like video to compliment the audio. Children can been seen running around dressed as fairies elegantly , much like the music itself

Voyeristic treatment of female body

Benny Benassi's Satisfaction demonstrates this issure perfectly. In the video, models dressed in nothing but bikini's and generally very little clothing can be seen using power tools and posed strongly as sexual objects.

Intertextual references

In The Red Hot Chili Peppers Dani California the band make several references to bands such as kiss , the sex pistols and pictured here Van Halen. These seem to be a dedication to the bands that inspired them.

Close ups

Beyonce uses a lot of close ups in her music video's. As I have learnt from studying ads the close up of a women's face staring into the camera entices the viewer into acknowledging the video

Genre Characteristics

Lamb Of God are a new metal band who play very fast rock music. This video links to the metal genre by showing a mosh pit , this is a form of dancing involving running around jumping into each other for fun... , this is very much a metal video demonstrating the pure metal scene fans love.
