Rihanna's 2010 music video for "Rude Boy" uses green screen techniques and references pop art. It depicts Rihanna objectifying men while dressed provocatively and engaging in sexually suggestive dances. While some see this as a post-feminist assertion of women's sexuality, others argue it portrays women as objects. The video was also criticized for being too similar to M.I.A.'s "Boyz" video from the previous year.Survey Analysis

The document analyzes survey results from an audience aged 15-18 to help plan a music video. The key findings are:
1) The audience is majority aged 15-18, so the video can include mature themes they will find appealing and use popular music genres like pop, rock, and R&B.
2) The audience is split equally between male and female, so the video can include elements that appeal to both genders.
3) The most popular song choice was "Superhero's" by The Script, a pop song, matching the genre preference indicated in earlier questions.
4) Bright colors should be used for the majority of the video but some black and white could add emotionSurvey monkey analysis

This document summarizes the results of a survey about indie rock music. It finds that more 17-20 year old females listen to indie rock than males of the same age, with the most popular artist being Arctic Monkeys. While Oasis was once very popular, only 50% of respondents now listen to them. Respondents felt indie rock appeals to both genders. When asked about music video preferences, most wanted to see the entire band equally, locations in cities and parks/studios, and for band members to wear indie clothing. The preferred video style was a combination of performance and narrative elements.Audience research

The document discusses the target audience for an RnB/Hip Hop and Pop music video. It notes that the genre conventionally shows wealth, luxury homes, cars, and beaches.

The demographic most likely to watch the video is identified as social grade E, as that group contains many 13-25 year olds who would be in education or low-level jobs.Q2 what have you learned from your audience feedback

Rap originated in the 1970s in America and became popular among African Americans in New York. DJ Kool Herc mixed funk and soul beats for MCs to rap over, coining the term.

The document discusses the results of a survey about music preferences which informed a band's decision to enter the indie rock genre. The survey showed that indie rock has room for growth compared to popular genres like rap and hip hop. It also found that people spend hours each day listening to music, so songs should have meaningful lyrics. Favorite artists were established acts, so a new artist would face tough competition, but a new band in indie rock may find more success. The band chose indie rock partly because of the popularity of "Sex on Fire" by Kings of Leon, showing bands can achieve popularity. They felt getting the song right and filling a gap in indie rock could lead to success for their new band.Questionnaire

My target audience is primarily people who prefer rap/hip-hop music. While this genre may seem niche, it has millions of fans worldwide. Successful artists like Eminem, Jay-Z, and Kanye West appeal to audiences beyond just conventional rap fans. To design products for my target audience, I need to understand how they present themselves and research popular rap artists and their music videos. Rap is so popular because artists often collaborate, blending genres and doubling their audiences. Music videos vary from flashy displays of wealth to more average, personal storylines. After analyzing different rap artists, I aim to produce a video in the style of a controversial artist like Eminem or Jay-Z, despite having a limited budget.Joanna powerpointaudiencefeedback

- 1. Inspiration, audience and conventions for my chosen genre My chosen genre: RAP
- 2. Inspiration • The genre I have chosen to make my music video about is Rap, after I had talked to a few friends and asked about which music video genre would be best to do, due to what they listen to on a daily basis and which would be best to do on the knowledge that we know about the genre, so therefore this has inspired us to use this genre as we listen to it on a daily basis and know quite a lot about it.
- 3. Audience • The audience of Rap, is anyone who is interested in singers such as Eminem, ASAP Rocky and many more. The age range depends on if they are brought up in rough areas, such as people may be well known to Rap music from an early age and many young adults enjoy Rap music as well, so I guess the age range can be from anywhere near the ages of 12- 25. however anybody could listen to Rap music if they enjoy it.
- 4. Conventions • There are many conventions a Rap music video can give to a user, some examples consist of the artist wearing jewellery such as big gold chains and rings, also some videos are filmed in rough areas. This is done to show that anybody can be rich and have a lot of money and that it doesn’t matter where you are from its about heart and the passion of the songs and the lyrics.
