Reflecting Back on AS

Through the lessons in June we learned a bit about music videos. We also analysed the previous A2's music videos comparing the top graded music videos to the less quality music videos.

Furthermore we also watched Iconic music videos which have had both high budgets and low budgets. For example we watched the extraordinary longest official music video (13min) Michael Jackson 'Thriller'. The $500,000 budget music video was awarded the greatest music video of all times.

We also watched a music video called Pharell - Happy which was made and published last year. This music video was the first 24hour music video.

In Contrast we watched a music video from an unsigned artist who had a low budget video and less technology behind the camera and compared it to Michael Jackson Thriller and other mainstream video's to identify the similarities and differences.

• Quality of cameras (Difference)
• Limited use of shots (Difference)
• Lack of quality editing (Difference)
