I Screen, You Screen.

I found the article to be extremely interesting in that it was sort of a history lesson on music videos. It sort of got me thinking about how did music videos, and when, did they come about. For me they have always just sort of been there and until my family got a computer when I was in middle school I only saw them on MTV. The article also helped me to understand why MTV switched to more reality shows and less music. The market they started has shifted completely to the internet, and mainly YouTube. Why would people watch them on MTV when they can watch whatever music video they want whenever then want on a platform like YouTube. People often joke about the fact MTV switched up their programming, but who can argue them after giving it a little thought?

The music videos on pinterest are really good, and I'm pretty sure my favorite is the literal version of Total Eclipse of My Heart. That video has been a long time favorite of mine and never fails to give me a good laugh no matter how many  times I watch it. Another favorite of mine is Michael Jackson's Thriller. As far back as I can remember I think that was the first music video I ever saw, and when I first watched it with my parents I thought it was a movie. The way the directed the video was fantastic and I loved that they incorporated a real story with real scenes outside of just the song. It gave it sort of a musical movie feel rather than just a music video.
