Andrew Godwins Music Theory
Andrew Godwin believes that there is 5 key aspects to a music video.
- 1. Thought through beat, this aspect means what do the lyrics mean to you personally
- 2. The relationship between the song and visuals, this means how does the music video itself and the lyrics link.
- 3. Narrative and performance of the song, this is how the performance of the music video tells a story throughout the song.
- 4. The technical aspect of a music video, This is how the different micro-features come together to create the final product. All four micro-features ( Cinematography, Sound, Mise-en-scene and Editing) determine the overall success of a music video.
- Star Image, the star image of a music video is making the main character (protagonist) the main focus of the frame, this is done by giving them the most camera time.
