  8. Next few weeks... • Music through the decades: One lesson taught by students on each of the 1960’s, 1970’s, 1980’s, 1990’s, 2000’s. How has the music video changed? (eg in the 1960’s there was little narrative in music videos compared to today...no CGI, sexual references, swearing etc) Students h/w- research a decade and plan how to teach the rest of the class about music videos in the decade. Use visual aids / can use hand outs. • The emergence of MTV (looking at Michael Jackson Thriller video) Why was MTV  SO influential in shaping our expectations of music videos? (because they were widely available, became bigger budget, were almost like mini feature films) • Controversial music videos- why are they so controversial? (Madonna’s “Like a Prayer” because it had a black Jesus, The Doors “Unknown Soldier” because of graphic Vietnam footage that the government did not want America to see) • Political music videos- why are they controversial, and what’s their appeal? (Rage against the Machine “Killing in the name” because of anarchy influence, Anti Flag “One Trillion Dollars” because of Anti-Bush message etc)
