NARRATIVE

Links have been made between the lyrics and the visuals in terms of the narrative. Andrew Goodwin states music videos demonstrate genre characteristics and there is a relationship between both lyrics and music, and visuals. These are two of his six points he feels are needed to successfully evaluate a music video. (“Dancing in the distraction factory” Routledge 1992). The way in which we have created links between visuals and narrative shows we have conformed to his analysis, helping our video to be as professional as it can possibly be. During the narrative, the lead singer follows her during the day, and various shots in different scenes highlight this narrative. Once we had the narrative, we set about to shoot the video in a way which would please our record company, and sell our band successfully as an institution.
