Sticking with the genre of rock, I've decided to continue with 'hard rock'. This music video can definitely be considered old as the band (which is a personal favourite of mine) has been a household name for the best part of 40years.
AC/DC's 'Thunderstruck' music video may only be performed on a stage, however the close ups of the instruments as they're being played reveals the skills of the great guitarist Angus Young.
As the video goes on, the camera angle gets increasingly lower in places. Some of the best guitar playing ever is therefore displayed in the sense that it gives the guitarist power over the audience.
Looking at the audience in the video it becomes apparent that AC/DC are real crowd pleasers when it comes to their performances, and because you see other people 'rocking out' to Thunderstruck you feel more inclined to really get into the music yourself.
The video (being 25 years old) does not have any special effects or thrilling graphics. I find this can be the great thing about rock music videos, their simplicity allows the viewers to enjoy the music more, instead of them being distracted by all kinds of effects you see in the majority of modern pop songs.
The thing most likely to influence how I create my own music video from Thunderstruck is the close up of the instruments as they are being played.
