Lyrics and Video link

There are major links between the video and lyrics, and it normally depends on what genre and what sort of artist the link is. There is;


Illustration - this is a direct link between the Lyrics and Video, this means that what is being said in the lyrics is what you will be able to see on the video... so for example;

In this shot you have him saying a disco ball hanging by a thread... this is shown as it the song is all about escapism, so they picked out the most quirky objected and chose to directly link the lyrics and the video.

Amplification- this is when there is meaning beyond the obvious, there isnt as much of a direct link between the 2.

Disjuncture- where the link between the lyrics and image if anything contradict each other.
