Music videos serve several purposes: to promote a song and album sales, to engage audiences visually with the artist's music, and to showcase the artist's talents. A good music video keeps the audience engaged through fast editing, varied shots, and visual representations of the song's lyrics, chorus, and themes. It uses elements like lighting, costumes, props, and genre-specific conventions to both tell a short story and meet audience expectations for that style of music. The primary goal of a music video remains marketing and promotion of the artist and their music.Radio trails analysis_sheet-2

John Grierson is considered the creator of the documentary genre. He originally made poetic documentaries but later felt they were better suited as educational resources rather than entertainment.
