In the music videos that I have looked at, I have noticed several trends in the way that they have been pruduced etc. With the more popular artists, there tends to be a larger budjet meaning that they can spend more money on cgi and they have more flexibility as to where they want to shoot.
This raises the issue that I have a small/minimal budget, so with the video that I produce, I must ensure that I take these factors into consideration.
I have also noticed that in the majority of these videos the main focus is on the artist and they are made out to be powerfull and dominent.
In my music video I will try my best to follow this trend and keep the main focus on the lead singer.

Inspirational Video
Black Eyed Peas - Don't Stop The Party from Exclusive Music Center on Vimeo.
This music video is based around the band 'Black Eyed Peas' leading a perfect lifestle, recording music, performing at clubs and traveling the world. This is effective because it makes the viewers envy the band and view them as role models.
This is also done on a very large budget as the venues and the locations would have been hired out spacificaly for the purposes of this video. There are also many people in the video as extras which may or may not have been payed.
I think that this video is good because it uses the name of the song and the lyrics to influence the style and the location of the music video. The video is also well timed and edited with the music so that the cuts are on the beats.

Jason Derulo - Don't Wanna Go Home from Exclusive Music Center on Vimeo.
I like the location and the overall vibe of this music video and I am considering using a similar style. This music video is shot in what seems to be an abandoned warehouse. This could easily be replicated by using a large bus or train station.
This is also a good idea as it does not matter too much about the weather conditions as it will hopefully be under cover.
The costumes in this video are very casual and you can see that there was no strict guidelines when it came to what they should wear, however they are all wearing the same style of chothing i.e leather jacket, and the girls are all wearing very revealing clothing and as a result of that the male audience will want to watch the video as they find the girls attractive, and the female audience will look up to the dancers as a role model/style icon.
