More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Music video is a popular form worldwide. It is a teachable and accessible topic because the videos are familiar to students, easy to get hold of and short. And because it is always changing, it makes an exciting and vibrant media form to study and analyse, raising interesting questions about representations, media language, institutions and audiences - the four key concepts of Media Studies. It has also had considerable influence formally and stylistically upon a range of other media and cultural artefacts globally. This teaching guide gives you everything you need to approach the topic with your students, including guidelines to practical work.

Very useful!
30 Nov 2008
Format:Spiral-bound
As a high school film studies teacher who is pretty much self-trained (at the film aspect, anyway!), this book gave me some marvelous ideas for "beefing up" my unit on music videos. The in-depth analyses are great models for discussion/viewing.
The book includes general guidelines, a possible course outline (what Brits call a "scheme of work)--though it's for a FAR longer course than my unit--and a very useful historical overview of music videos, which provides some good viewing suggestions. It also provides a contextual framework within which to analyze the genre, as well as handouts available online.
I was impressed enough with the book, that I ordered two others in the series.

Super series for Film & Media Studies teachers (16-19 year olds)
27 Sep 2005
Format:Spiral-bound
I am biased, as I'm the Series Editor, but every title in the series has lots of factual and conceptual background information for each topic, two sample six-week teaching schemes and teaching tips (and downloadable photocopiable worksheets and web notes from [...]) as well as 3-5 detailed case studies, full glossary and suggestions for further research.
Every writer is an experienced teacher and/or examiner and most titles (with the exception of ones with 'British' in the title) have a fairly international perspective.
More titles on the way...
