Task 9: Summery of the music industry in 2012


In the lesson today we were learning about how much the music industry has changed in 2012, it seems that as the years go on more and more changes about the music industry for example now that we can all get our music online for free it means that the music industry has to come up with new ways to get there music and there artists out there.

I feel that the music videos are really important for the fans because they serve as like a portal between the celebrity and there fan, and this means that more people will connect with the artist and therefore more people will go and buy where albums. I have noticed that in music videos these days the artist nearly always at one or more points through the video look at the camera, and this is just another way of getting a message to the fans by basically saying "I love you, go and buy my album.

Music videos are not only important to the fans but they are important to the artist and the labels that they are signed to, this is because the music videos are just a way of getting more fame for the artist and therefore more acknowledgement for the label, this basically means that both the artist and the label will be making more money, but not only that the music video is also a way of promoting merchandise and the overall branding of the label.
