What Is A Music Video?

A Music Video, Is Bringing A Song Written By An Artist To Life. This Is Done To Keep Their Song Fresh In The Memory Of The Public Eye. A Few Months Or Even A Year After They Release Their Song. Music Videos Are Very Beneficial To The Public Eye Because It Gives Them An Opportunity To Understand The Song And Visually See What The Artist Feels About Their Own Song, From The Way Their Music Video Has Been Portrayed.

On The Promotional Side, Music Videos Are Fantastic. Believe It Or Not Some Members Of The Public Only Notice A Song Through The Video, And Having A Clear Understanding Music Video Can Instantly Turn A Member Of The Public Into A Fan Of That Particular Artist.

Artists In Music Videos, Not Only Help Promote Their Song. But They Help To Promote Leading Brands, This Is Done By Simply Advertising Objects Or Items Of Branded Clothes They Wear In Their Video. Some Members Of The Public Idolize Artists And If They See Their Favorite Artist Wearing A Particular Brand In Their Music Video, This Person From The Public Is More Likely To Go Out And Purchase This Brand, So Its A Win, Win Situation.

There Are Three Different Types Of Music Videos, 1. Performance, 2. Narrative and 3.Concept Based. This Simply Means There Are Music Videos That Show The Artist/Band Doing A Live Performance, And A Narrative One That Tells A Story And A Concept Based In The Music Video.

Frankie Boyle

As We All Know Frankie Boyle Is A Very Humorous And Witty Character, Therefore Taking This Into Account This Is The Type Of Person He Is, That's Why We Use Him As The Voice Of Our Show. We Don't See Any Reason To Apologize And Neither Does Boyle. No Line Or Boundary Was Crossed, Boyle Did Not Make Any Racial Comments, If He Did That Would Be A Different Story And Of Course We Would Take Fast Action.


We Have Taken Into Account, That Maybe That Wasn't The Best Of His Jokes But To Be Fair It Wasn't The Most Offensive Joke He's Made. So It Shocks Us Receiving Complaints About This Minor Joke. Boyle Is Known For His Upfront Jokes, He Makes Jokes About The Irish Famine, Pedophilia In The Catholic Church, Fundamentalist Muslims, Etc He Pretty Much Makes Jokes About Everyone And As A Comedian Who Could Blame Him?


 Jordan Put Harvey In The Public Eye, And One Of The Reasons She Did This, Was To Make Sure Her Son Wouldn't Lack The Normality Other Children His Age Ge, Just Because Of His Blindness. And As Shes Made This Decision Jokes Like These Shouldn't Offend Her.  

For Future Reference We Advise All Viewers Or Potential Viewers, Not To Watch 'The Frankie Boyle' show, If They Feel Uncomfortable With Upfront Comedy, Before We Star Every Show , We Do Inform Viewers Of Strong Language And Possibly Offensive Jokes Reason It Being An 18+ Show.

Letter Of Complaint

Dear
BBC,


I Was Watching News Night A Few Nights Ago. This Particular Show Was Based On The Events That Took Place During The Week, As Known As "Looting" "Riots". David Starkey Was One Of The Chair Men For This Particular Debate, Alongside Others. 


I Am Very Disappointed And Outraged By The Lack Of Respect, From Starky.. All His Views Were Turned Into Racial Comments And I Feel This Is Very Unacceptable For Someone Who Was So Educated To Be So Shallow. The Riots Consisted Of Stealing, Smashing Of Windows And Violence; Which Wasn't Pleasant For Anyone In The UK At The Time, But Starky Aimed All Of These Downfalls On The Black People In The UK. 


One Of The Main Comments Starkyy Made That Shocked Me And I'm Sure A Lot More Viewers "Whites Have Become Black" I Was Very Disturbed And Almost Amused By This Comment, Because As CCTV Footage Showed On The News On Even On News Papers The Riots, Was Mainly A Clang Of People Who Are Multicultural. And By Taking Part In The Riots That Was Their Way Of Being Heard By The Government.


As I Said Briefly In The Beginning, Starky Is Very Well Educated Man. And He Should Know That Stereotypes Are Never Acceptable Especially When It's Making One Whole Race, Feel Like Their The Cause Of All The Problems In The UK.


BBC Is One Of The Most, Highly Respected Channels And By Them Allowing Such Ruddiness And Crude Racism To Be Shown To Millions Of Viewers Is Not Good For Their Publicity Or Image. I'm Sure The BBC Know This Is Very Wrong And Should Get Starky To Apologize For All The Racial Comments He Made, This Won't Make People Forget But It Will Show That He's Acknowledged, What He's Done And He's Willing To Put Things Right. 


I'd Highly Appreciate It If I Got A Response Back, From The BBC As I'm Sure Plenty Other Viewers Are Too. 




Yours Sincerely,Georgina Tarawally.

Is Rupert Murdoch Safe?

Rupert Murdoch Is A Very Wise, Successful Business Man. Who Uses His Wisdom And Charm To Sway The Public To Almost Abide By What He Believes In.. While Realistically He Is Just Pursuing His Own Personal Desire While Making A Fortune Off Everyone's Back.

Should He Be Regulated ? 

Rupert Murdoch Is The Owner Of Sky, The Main Question Is Should He Be Allowed To Own A Company As Big As Sky?

Rebecca Brooks And Glen Muclaire And Alongside Others In The Company, Have Been Arrested On The Grounds Of Hacking People's Voice Mails And Messages.. Surely This Should Show The Public That Rupert Is An Unfit Boss And Should Be Regulated ?

Rupert's Other Company Fox In America, Also Plays Mind Games On The Public Into Doing Things They Want, No Matter How Bad Or Unexceptionable These Things May Be, In My Opinion Someone So Influential For All The Wrong Reasons Shouldn't Have The Power To Own A Company As Big As Sky.

Taking Everything Into Account, Rupert Is A Very Selfish Person.. Who Manipulates People Into Doing What They Feel Is Right But Has A Negative Effect On Society, Is This Someone We Want To Own A Company As Big As Sky? You Decide. 

Eadweard Muybridge

Is An English Photographer Who Spent Most Of His Life Abroad, Pioneering Work On Animal Locomotion. He Uses Several Cameras To Accomplish This. He Was Born As Edward But Then Changed His Name To Eadweard, Because Of The Spanish Influence.




He Used A Series Of Large Cameras That Used Glass Plates Placed In A Straight Line, Each One Being Triggered By A Thread As The Horse Passed.


Unfortunately Eadweard Died April 8th, 1904 In Kingston Upon Thames.

Zoetrope Example

Zoetrope Is  A Cylinder Optical Toy With Numerous Slits On The Side, With A Series Of Images Drawn By One, In The Inner Surface, When Reviewed The Cylinder Rotating, It Gives An Impression Of The Images Moving In A Continuous Motion, Scanning Through The Slits Keeps All The Pictures From Simply Blurring Together. So That The User See's A Rapid Succession Of Images Producing The Illusion Of Motion, The Equivalent Of A Motion Picture. When Looking Over The Cylinder Optical Toy Instead Of Looking Through The Slits You Cannot See The Pattern.


 

Comparing Two Idents

Our Current Task Is Based On Channel Ident's, The Two Ident's In Which I will Be Comparing Is "BBC One- Ident- 'Capes'- 2008" And "BBC2 Zoetrope Ident". The First Ident From BBC2 "Zoetrope Ident", Had A Sci Fi Atmosphere To It And It Reminded Me Of Futurama. Which Impressed Me Because The Whole Idea, Of A Channel Ident Is To Draw In Viewers Or People Who May Just Be Flicking Threw Channels And These People If Attached To The Indent They Could Be Potential Viewers.




 


 The Second Ident, From BBC One "Capes", Shows A Typical Day In London, Full Of Clouds And Rain. The Weather Then Changes To A Sunny Scene.. The Colorful Rain Coats Go To Show The Colours That Represent BBC One As A Channel. This Also Suggests A Happy Feel To BBC One And Their Age Group Is For All Since They Have CBeebies.


 


 Both BBC Ident's Have A Similar Circular Motion, For BBC One This Motion Was Cycling And For BBC2 This Motion Was Of The Zeotrope. This Suggests Peace To Me Especially With BBC One Cycler's Going Around In The Same Direction With The Colours From The BBC One Logo.
