=** Context **= Music videos are short films that combine music and imagery usually created to help market the song. These can vary from a filming of the live musical event to something quite abstract and unrelated to the song itself. These became popular in the 1980s through MTV but the first true musical video was made in 1930. Music videos have become more popular and many people use sites such as youtube or youku to watch their favourite music videos.

=** Challenge **= You need to plan, film and edit a music video to accompany the piece you create in music class. This needs to be a reflection of the song created and a combined group effort.
