Samenvatting
Music videos have ranged from simple tableaux of a band playing its instruments to multimillion dollar, high-concept extravaganzas. This study treats music video as a distinct multimedia artistic genre, different from film, television, and indeed from the songs they illuminate -and sell. Vernallis describes how verbal, musical, and visual codes combine in music video to create defining representations of race, class, gender, sexuality, and performance. The book explores the complex interactions of narrative, settings, props, costumes, lyrics, and much more. Three chapters contain close analyses of important videos: Madonna´s "Cherish," Prince´s "Gett Off," and Peter Gabriel´s "Mercy St.". |
