Titled: Research blog: Music Video Conventions
I was scared of doing this mainly because of how my music is not exactly how regular music is its very different but in the end even with my music's uniqueness even the song that i want to use still has conventions from the past. The type of music that I'm using is a sort of remix of a video game soundtrack and while this is unique it still as a lot of convections when there are music videos using this music. It is mainly how fast the music is, how the music usually has a higher pitch, how they also always compared to the original or how the music video is formatted with an animation or a single screen when they are in videos. And for video game music it has its own convections about what instruments are used to create certain emotions about where the music is used about how songs used in video games usually add specific elements to make it fell about a certain character, area, or event so i will be looking at convections of both remixes and video game music please don't make me lose a grade for this i did not know what would be the correct genre. With video game music and remixes there is a usual know fact that they are usually speed up versions of the original songs they are usually speed up to create a more entertaining version of a song. It is made like that to create a more positive felling from the original song something that can make people exited and can be something that lets people fell like they are listening to their favorite song in a way where it is mixed in with with other elements that certain people love. While a song being speed up is not the only thing remixes do with speed it is speed up and chopped up to only add parts that where good speed up to create a coherent and fully connected loop that is easy to spend even hours lesioning to. With the fast speed being used remixes also have an opportunity to use the lyrics of a song to create a certain effect that was the original intention of the person who created it it can really make the entire thing better if the lyrics are used well. A convection for video game music is also how calm it can be it can be very calming in early stages in the game as well as the fact that instruments such as flutes and violins are used in making a felling of a calm location. The calmness is used in areas where breaks are for after dealing with a boss or a giant wave, an area with a lot of farmland or grass and tress such as a starting forest, an area where you stay when not going on an adventure like a town or city, and cinematic cutscenes. Another convection for video game music is how depending on the game it can sound a bit retro with how games sounded in the past games like the original Tetris, tekken and mortal combat game sounded like when first released. A convection for remixes are how they usually have a music video filled with clips of a shows best moments or scenes being put together to showcase that show or to showcase the fight for video game remixes scenes that are shown are usually from anime mostly from their action scenes. But there are also times where the remixes have only a single screen showcasing a character or the name of the franchise the music is from usually as a way to relate the video to the original sure of where it came from. Similarly for video game music their music is shown in front of artwork from the game creators or it is shown from artwork from fans of the games who want to spread the music so everyone who played the game and wanted to hear it can be able to do so. A convection of remixes that i stated before was how remixes always have a higher pitch then the original this might make remixes become mixed up with vocaloids personally i know nothing about the latter and i don't want to but mixing them up is a bad idea. For remixes high pitches are used not for the lyrics but it is used for the beats and the beats that are usually used in hip hop or rap the beat of the music and the way it sounds is something that is very important in remixes. With the video game music genre a natural convection of the genre is how the boss music is usually loud and high energy usually loud and boisterous with instruments that are loud and it is used to emphasize how important this current event is keeping your eyes on what is happening. Another convection of video game boss music is how the music also highlights what characters are either fighting or talking using instruments and sounds from different songs to make the song used in the fight and with that it shows a fight with emotion making the fight more personal. And another convection of remixes is most how they are usually made from fans of the music fans like making remixes to their personal taste to the beats they like they do this and then upload or spread it making their remix and the original gain more popularity. Thank you for reading this project I'm scared that i got something wrong if i should do the remix thing or video game thing because I'm not fully sure either is a genre so i hope that you where entertained by my little presentation have a good day.
