Genre Paragraph

Genre is a way of categorising a text through style and form and being able to place them in a particular group based on codes and conventions. My A2 music production is generally associated with the indie genre therefore I will use the typical elements of this genre to enable my music video to be successful in emphasising this genre. For example, Indie music videos are often simple and toned down as opposed to pop videos which are exaggerated and overdramatic. They often focus on a simple story line that has a deeper meaning behind it. In my music video the story will revolve around flashbacks and memories while also referring back to the protagonist being by herself to accentuate the lyrical meaning in the song and what effect it has.
