I have chosen to analysis Queen's We Will Rock You.
In the music video they show a lot of the genre
characteristics of rock music. They play their own instruments such as guitars
and drums. They also seem to be doing a 'live' performance in the video, which
is what a lot of rock bands do.
There also are a lot of close ups of the singer and the of
the other band members. This shows that the record label could have included
these to keep the focus on the band. The main singer has the most scenes and
close ups for the durance of the video, because lead singers are seen as the
main element of most bands.
The music video also has the notion of looking, for they are
singing in some scene straight to us, the audience and they also point as if
they can see us. They also use pronouns such as 'you' which can link this to
another of Goodwin's features, the linking of lyrics and visuals.
