Audience Reactions

The audiences engagement

As there are different was in which an audience does react and interact with a music video, it is important to know how. They will interact with it via youtube and MTV, but what would draw them to want to watch it, for me it would be the lyrics.

Audience placement

To target a particular audience you need to be in the right place. Making the audience feel as though the music video is for them. Where are they? Radio such as Heart and Magic. TV Shows/Films making their song to be on a soundtrack. For the right shows having the audience wanting to find them.

Audience foreknowledge

Already the audience know about the music artist songs and videos. So they are familiar with the style.

Audience identification

The way the audience relates to an artist can be in various ways. Sometimes it may not be what they sing about. Don’t judge a book by it’s cover, but an audience is always going to judge. So how does the music artist look and does it appeal to the audience, do they have to be good looking, well presented. My music artist looks presentable. Within the music video the location would be in popular places such as Central London. It is important to maintain a reasonable attitude as my music artist is seen to be more relatable. There would not be any revealing and outstanding clothing, it would just be natural.

Audience expectations

What the audience thinks about an artist and their music, what they’re expecting. They wouldn’t be expecting anything that is drastically new. Just different surroundings.
