Music Video

Music Video 


The ''genre'' is a type of category where a media product would belong or fall in. For example if there was a movie about 9/11 it would mostly be under the ''documentary'' genre. 

Media products can be divided into 5 categories:

  • Film
  • Video
  • Audio
  • Print
  • Digital
There are many different ways how to find where your media product belongs to. One of them you can find here

Video Genre 


There are many categories for music videos. Every music channel on TV specialises on some genres. For example MTV has many sub-chanells as MTV Rocks, MTV Dance and many others. Also There are many un-popular music channels who just play all kind of music and don't divide their music into genres. 

Production Technologies 


There are many ways how to distribute a media product. After I have decided to make music video, I did some research about music videos. I found out that the first music video ever made was ''Bohemian Rhapsody'' by Queen in 1975. The first music video ever played on MTV was ''Video Killed The Radio Star'' also by Queen. 

History of Music videos

A really early example of a music video was St. Louis Blue's - Bessie Smith (1929)
In 1940, Walt Disney released an animated film ''Fantasia'' based around famous pieces of classical music.
