Research for Music Video

A summary of the main points of Andrew Goodwins theory;

Andrew Goodwin’s Theory


Examples of each 3 types... 


Illustration: This video by Eminem is a form of Illustration because the video is narrating what is happening in the actual video itself, for example, in the lyrics it says how he 'waited in the rain', in the video, it shows two people waiting in the rain...
Eminem ft Dido - Stan


Amplification: This video by American rapper Styles P is a form of amplification because the lyrics are about his life and struggling, whereas the video shows a robot invasion and lots of movie-like action, which is totally unrelated with the lyrical content..
Styles P - Where The Angels Sleep

Disjuncture: This video by James Morrison is a form of Disjunction because the lyrics and teh video has little connection. The lyrical content is about how a person is missing their love partner, and in teh video it includes scenes which relate to this, for example, the scene where the two people are looking into the mirror and seeing their partner..
James Morrison ft. Nelly Furtado - Broken Strings
