Music Videos Through the Decades

1925 Music Video
Back then there was instruments being played for example trumpets. Colour of the pictures is in black and yellow. The camera pans across the room instead of cutting into different edits as it happens in the modern era today.

1950's Music Video
The Music Video in the 1950's there was singing and also dancing well. There are some close-up shots of the singer particularly and the camera panned during the music video. The audio quality was very good.

1960's Music Video
The music video is first introduced by one of the people showing signs of different songs relating to the music video. The camera shot is very closed up at the same person throughout most of the video. It ends with the person walking away. It was more abstract.

Bob Dylan sent messages quite lot in his music videos

1967 Music Video
The opening of the music video starts off in a forest environment  and the difference with this is that colour is introduced. There is also more effect in the music video comparing to the previous years before the colour was introduced.

1975 Music Video
This music video starts off in a shadow of three people singing. The effect has improved vastly a lot during the years then. Camera cuts slowly to different singers in the band to make the effect of the music video appropriate to the style.
Also the continuous use of colour has improved vastly.
The singers are singing in a echo to make the music video more interesting and after the echo singing the camera cuts quite quickly from different singers to another.

More ethusiasm and rhythm to the music video. Dancing was a lot common then. It started go into different types of genres.

1993 Music Video
They have used the cross where Jesus died to present music video. The animation of the music video is to high effect. There also some animated characters. The music video was very symbolic and also the audience had to interpret the music video more.

2000's Music Video
The music video is more vibrant and ethusiastic as well. Every single person in the music video were enjoying themselves. It is also funny in a sort of way so for example, the dog was biting the man on seaside.
Big budget in terms of different locations and props.

In the modern era today
The colour of the music video is in black and white. The camera shots cuts slowly with different characters involved.
