28 The current Arctic Monkeys logo is a simple black circle with the name of the band clearly written in the middle. This is instantly recognisable and is clear for all audiences to see and recognise. It is not over complicated or genre specific so can appeal to a wide audience. It has a modern, contemporary, uncomplicated, sleek design. As the band are now in their 5 th album, they have already established a large audience and do not need to use gimmicks to try and attract new fans.

29 The artwork for the band s new single and album compliments their logo completely. The colour scheme is still the same (entirely monochrome) and this is further continued with their music videos for the singles of the same album. The black and white lines on the album cover suggest sound waves which relate to the music theme. In the middle of the sound waves are the band s initials, AM. This is a homage to the influential band The Velvet Underground who had an album called VU.

30 Arctic Monkeys logo is in prime position at the top of the website. Once again, the website is completely black and white which shows the classic, vintage feel the band are trying to create. This also compliments their image as we will see in the video. The video for the band s new single is the main part of this homepage and has clear links to share to social networking sites. This helps with the band s promotion and encourages word of mouth to help them get new fans.

31 There is also a clear link to itunes so viewers enjoy the track, they can download it instantaneously. There is also further information to buy it on vinyl. This clearly shows the record companies influence as they are encouraging consumerism by the fans. There are more links to social networking at the bottom of the page so fans can instantly like the video on Facebook or tweet about it using Twitter.

32

33 Here are some questions to ask yourself to begin understanding music videos: 1. Is the music video based in real life, or does this take place in a fantasy world? 2. Is the way the artist is portrayed in the video really how that person dresses and acts in real life? 3. Consider how the musician is dressed - is that how regular people dress? 4. Consider the actions taken by the artist in the video - would they really do these things in real life? 5. What is the benefit for the musician to portray him or herself this way? 6. Does the video portray people in stereotypical ways? Are these reflections of real people or are they just one-sided characters? 7. Consider the editing - how does the frequency of cuts from shot to shot affect how you feel about the video? 8. Consider the setting - why did the director choose this location or setting? 9. Do you think this video has been successful in marketing the artist and the track?

34 Your Analysis of the video
