Market Research.

I am doing some research for my music video, I will be attempting to find out what music videos people like, and their favourite videos of all time, and I will be asking people how often they watch these videos, and where etc.

Jack Ludford

On average, how you often do you watch music videos and where: Watches music videos daily for his own entertainment, often on youtube.

Do you like some songs more because of their music video: If would make me like the song more, I woudln't like a song because of the music video, but I might sometimes like a song more because of the video.

Do you have a favourite music video of all time: Kasabian, Empire, I find it quite different to most music videos, because of the setting of the music video.

Harry Simmons

On average, how you often do you watch music videos and where: I watch music videos, but I do not got out of my way to watch these videos, often I flick through all the music channels on sky, looking for a good music video, but I only do this when I can't find anything else to watch.

Do you like some songs more because of their music video: Well I'll listen to a song if I like the music video, but that doesn't always mean I like the song more, I just enjoy the video, so I'll watch the video more, and obviously this means that I'll listen to the song more.

Do you have a favourite music video of all time: Fat Less, Vindaloo, this isn't a joke, I like the way it makes a mockery of the Bittersweet Symphony video, technically the video uses intertextuality, and I find the video enjoyable as a whole.

Pat Mills

On average, how you often do you watch music videos and where: I enjoy watching music videos, and watch them often, mainly on NME TV, the 'Q' channel, and MTV Rocks, this is because I like the genre of music that is played on these channels, therefore because of this, I do sometimes find myself only watching music videos of the 'Indie' genre.

Do you like some songs more because of their music video: Yes, because I'll watch the video more, therefore I'll listen to more, often when this happens, the song will start to grow on me. because I watch the video more.

Do you have a favourite music video of all time: Yes, Prince Charming, by Adam and the Ants, this one is because of my dads influence, I've seen him watch the video to this song on MTV Classic many times. I really the narrative this story tells, and i also like it's basicness, but understand that at the time it was made, the effects would have been seen as being really good, which is what I really like about the video.

From this I have learnt that a good music video can make a song better, because people will watch the video more, therefore listening to the song more, so usually it grow the more you listen to it.

Also, judging by the research, people enjoy a narrative if it's told properly, and often you can capture peoples imagination, this could also result in people watching the video numerous times over, making the video a success.
