Research: Examining The Appeal of Music Videos To Audiences

The Appeal of Music Videos

I have gone around and asked the audience 'What appeals them to music videos?' and this is there response:

As you can see, these are the main responses:

• Entertainment
• Audience like the artist and like looking at them
• Audience like the location
• Audience like the song
• The Male Gaze
• Audience like the Narrative
• Adds another dimension to the song (visuals)
• Audience like their image, style and brand etc and would want to emulate them

Depending on whether the person is male or female, determines the type of response they also have. For e.g looking at females half naked (Laura Mulvey's Theory), was mentioned from Torian. I also asked Lolade how old she was, to show that the target audience is between the ages of 16 to 20+.
