Everyone Makes. |

tracks and most importantly, handling criticism takes a bit of
time to get used to. In the majority of cases though, marketing
plans do fail. you may have a great sounding track, but if it is
not marketed properly then it will just be white noise.

| Article Title :: Where Did the Music Video Come from? |
| |
|
Although the first music video ever broadcasted was 'Video
Killed the Radio Star' played by MTV in 1981, some consider the
music video to be much older than that year. It seems that the
film Alexander Nevsky, directed by Sergei Eisenstein in 1938 had
some extended images of battles which had been choreographed by
Sergei Prokofiev. These new scenes were so innovative that they
have lately been considered to be the first music video.

innovative scenes. The 1911 Alexander Scriabin's symphony -
Prometheus: Poem of Fire was written for orchestra and 'light

| Article Title :: The Effect of Censorship on Music Videos |
| |
|

but many artists sometimes make a statement that is considered
to be offensive. Therefore the music video gets censored due to
these offensive messages.
The definition of offensive music videos is different from one
country to another. What is considered to be offensive in one
country could be seen as a completely normal behaviour in
another. The reason for this situation is the diversity of
cultures that have different laws and different ethics. The
label company which is usually producing the music video is
aware of this phenomenon, so videos are being edited and
distributed in a censored version and an uncensored one for (read full article) |

|
Music videos represent a crucial part of the music industry.
Artists owe their careers to music videos as they are being
given the chance of impressing the public not just with their
vocal talent, but also with their looks or moves.
Thirty years ago, music video used to be less important then it
is nowadays. MTV (Music Television) was the phenomenon that gave
so much power and importance to the music video. MTV started
broadcasting in 1981 in the USA and it marked the beginning of
the music video's ruling over the music industry. The first

resource on the net, We used to get misplaced. It was because we
