Matching Music to Video

Using the Andrew Goodwin music video theory I have used lyrics from 'The Doves' song 'There Goes The Fear' to create a short simple storyboard for what I think could happen during it.

Goodwin's theory is that:
  • There is a relationship between the music and the visual video.
  • There is a relationship between the lyrics and the visual video.
  • It can contradict, amplify and/or illustrate the music.
  • Close up's of the lead singers and having the other band members in the background.
  • The artist's voice must suit the music video as well.
  • Songs can also be seen as story's and the band/singer are trying to tell their view of the story.
I have only demonstrated the four verses/chorus, because some of them are repeated. Here is my storyboard:

Here is the actual music video for it:
