Vox Pop & Analysis

This Vox Pop shows us people's reactions when we asked them 'What is your favourite music video? and why?' 

Analysis:

What is your favourite music video?

We got a variety of music genres from our vox pop, such as;

• Red Hot Chilli Peppers – Danny California
• Beyoncé- Single Ladies
• Rihanna – Take A Bow
• Kid Cudi – Day’N’Night

Although none of these songs are really a part of the genre that I am planning to do I can gather basic ideas of what people in my potential target audience like in a music video which can be transferred into my music video.

And why?

• Mike said he liked the 'Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Danny California' because it's fun, interesting and different.
• Beth said she liked 'Beyoncé - Single Ladies' because she felt that the association to the song and the dance was good and she also felt that it was very unique.
• Olivia and Emily said that they liked 'Rihanna - Take a Bow' because of it's strong and interesting narrative.
• Dan said he enjoyed the 'Kick ID - day'n'night' music video because it was interesting and different and because it showed the effects of drugs on its users.
• Ryan said he liked the 'Michael Jackson - Thriller' music video because he felt that it was unique and never been done before.

What I have learnt:

From our vox pop I learnt that the main thing that people enjoy about a music video is that it is different, interesting and unique. These were the main points that people said made a music video their favourite and memorable. Aside from this, some people said that having an interesting story line and narrative with something that can be associated with it (such as a dance) made it fun to watch, but wasn't necessary to have. These last two points aren’t too relative to our music video as they don’t really fit in with the genre that I am planning to do.
