We saw a lot of different types of music videos in class. Ever since OK GO first came out theirs have been some of my favorites. The timing it takes to complete them is incredible. I mean ever since the treadmills music video they just seem to one up themselves every time. Speaking of timing, out of the music videos I hadn't already seen I'd have to say that Valentino was my favorite. Again, the timing of it was great. Music videos like those are a nice change of pace compared to those of popular music.
It's funny to think that a whole network was crafted with the idea of playing music videos 24/7 and now they don't play any at all. I understand that you have to break out to new content eventually, but please don't let it be the kinda crap they have on air now. Any who, I digress. There are so many different types of music videos that it would be nice to see a channel rededicate themselves to the genre. With the invention of YouTube, though, it has sort of taken care of the void since you can watch what you want at anytime instead of waiting for it to come around again on the schedule.
I'd state my favorite music video if I didn't have the memory of a gold fish. A lot has happened since I've probably seen it last, but one that tells a good story or are entertaining have usually been the ones that have caught my attention the most. The guy who has seamlessly controlled the industry is Weird Al. What he did this past year with releasing a new one every day was perty spectacular. The nice thing about music videos is that they don't have to be elaborate to be enjoyed, but when they are it makes them that much sweeter.
