Music videos have played a main part in establishing the artist and promoting the song, they been around since the 1980s.
A music video contains moving images whilst a piece of music is being played. Music videos contain a lot of thought, time and dedication. Many music videos involve a lot of props and special effects to make it my unique and original.
The general change of shot in a music video is every three seconds, sometimes even less. This means that there has to be lots of footage which has to be cut down and edited to fit the music in the right places.
The 'illustrated song' was the initial step to music videos we see everyday on music television channels such as; MTV, VH1, 4 music and VIVA. This idea came from music producers Edward B Marks and Joe Stern, they hired an electrician to project images on a screens longships live performances. This was used to help promote there song "The Little Lost Child".
