What do these videos have in common. Well for one they're all French. Not all scopitone videos were French, there are just lots of French ones on Youtube. What else? These videos don't really have any concept. The videos are simple and colourful. There seems to be lots of dancing in all of them as well. The songs are all super catchy! And the singers are all quite talented!
Now let's look at some of today's "top music videos"...
Like scopitones, these videos are colourful and there's dancing. Unlike scopitones these music videos have plots, giant sets, and some even have explosions! All three of these videos are also selling the artist's persona, wither it be "the diva" or "the girl next door". It's less about the song and more about the star.
Wow music videos have come along way!
