Here is the deconstruction of a music video that I looked at. I analysed multiple scenes to give me an idea of what to include in my music video, and to gather what conventions are typical in all music videos.

Key Theories







Favourite Music Video: Mariah Carey - Heartbreaker


 
 
This is my favourite music video for the song 'Heartbreaker' starring Mariah Carey and Jay-Z. The dance routines and costume changes add to the energetic and fun mood of the song, as well as the bright colour palette and high-key lighting; it makes me want to enter and be a part of the events happening within the song.

  • Add a summary of the key theories, including: Dyer, Maslow, Goodwin, Frith and Archer

About Me

Hello, my name is Annalise Russell and I am the owner of this blog. I have created this blog in order to display the journey through the production of my A Level Media music video, and to give people an insight into the research/production process that is behind every music video. I believe that I am a creative person and imaginative person, and that this will be reflected through my chosen genre of R&B, as well as my ability to construct and develop a classic music video.
