Goodwin's theory applied to my video

Genre-related style and iconography present. With every music video the audience can usually tell what genre it is by the clothes that the artist are wearing, another way that the audience can tell is by the music itself. With this music video audience can tell that the genre of this music video is rap.



A relationship between the lyrics and the visuals, with the visuals illustrating, amplifying or contradicting the lyrics. In almost all music videos it is important that the song relates back to the video, in the lyrics of i need you, the lyrics directly come back to the video talking about the girl and goes into a memory.

A relationship between the music and the visuals, with the visuals illustrating, amplifying or contradicting the music. The sound of the song and the effect is has on the listener should definitely be reflected in music videos. For instance a fast paced song should have a fast cutting rate and a slower song should have the opposite effect. An example of this is in the chorus of my video when the singer is on the phone and then it goes to a slow transition of the girl on the phone as well.




Multiple close-ups of the main artist or vocalist. With most music videos there tends to be a lot of close ups of the artists, in my music video there are multiple close ups of the artist and the singer through out the video.





Voyeurism often plays a major part, especially in relation to females. In most rap videos women are usually represented sexually in videos the girls either half naked and are used as sexual references, in my music video this is not used, because of the fact the female present is missed in the video.

Intertextual references to other media texts may be present. However in my music video I believe that there are known, because I did not think to put any reference to another song or object that relates to another artist or the artist himself, even though we had put a short piece of another song which belongs to the artist it does not show media text.
As Goodwin stated that in all music videos the majority of the factors can be found, my music video is a perfect example of that, having the majority of the factors with a few missing.
