About Music Videos
A music video is a short film or video that accompanies a complete piece of music/song. Modern music videos are primarily
made and used as a marketing device intended to promote the sale of music recordings. Although the origins of music videos
go back much further, they came into their own in the 1980s, when MTV based their format around the medium, and later with
the launch of VH1. The term "music video" first came into popular usage in the early 1980s. Prior to that time, these works
were described by various terms including "filmed insert", "promotional (promo) film", "promotional (promo) clip" or "film
clip". In Chinese entertainment, music videos are simply known as MTVs because the network was responsible for bringing
music videos to popularity in that country.
Music videos use a wide range of styles of film making techniques, including animation, live action filming, documentaries,
and non-narrative approaches such as abstract film. Some music videos blend different styles, such as animation and live
action.
The first music video dates back to 1894 when sheet music publishers still ran the music business, Edward B. Masen and
Joe Stern promoted sales of their song The Little Lost Child with a series of projected still images shown simultaneously
with live performances and blurry animations of kittens; in what became a popular form of entertainment known as the
illustrated song. This has been termed the first music video.
With the arrival of the sound films and talkies in 1926, many musical short films were produced. Vitaphone shorts
(1926–30), which were produced by Warner Bros, featured many bands, vocalists and dancers. The series entitled Spooney
Melodies was the first true musical video series. The shorts were typically about six minutes in duration, and featured art
deco style animations and backgrounds combined with film of the performer singing the song. This series of shorts can also
arguably be considered to be the earliest music videos.
