Death of the Music Video...

To end my research, planning, production and evaluation about Music Video's, I thought it would be good to show two opposite ideas concerning them.

One article commented on an idea that the Internet has saved Music Videos, as it has "rebirthed the art and practice of music-video making" while another commented that Music Video's are only made to be monetized, as they feature so many product placements. The writer said that the band, The Script "regard theirs (fans) not as passionate supporters but rather bovine, coin-eyed consumers".

I believe that the Internet does give creators of Music Videos more unique and quirky ways to present their ideas, but on the other hand Music Video's recently seem to take the limelight of the artist/s and focus on the product placements.

 "There's a fundamental difference between being sold a band, and the band selling you stuff"
