Michael Moursi: Music Video Exhibition












You need to exhibit your video in order to get a large consumption. Fortunately, there are various ways you can exhibit your music videos. One example are music television channels. The two big dogs in this particular industry are MTV (Music Television) and VIVA. These channels exhibit popular, mainstream music videos to their audience. Furthermore, these channels will always show the Top 40 music videos, putting other videos to one side. Apart from music, they show TV shows instead of using that space to have different music videos shown. Our music video would definitely not get onto channels, such as MTV as we are not that commercial and popular enough to get onto these channels. MTV and VIVA would only show videos if they get on their Top 40 list. This is a shame, as viewers miss out on other videos which deserve to be on channels like this.


Another example is the internet. Websites such as YouTube is a great way to exhibit your video to the world, as YouTube allows anything and everything, varying from different styles and genre, to commercial and non-commercial music videos. YouTube works well as you can upload the video yourself, notify your fans through Twitter and Facebook, and you would eventually get views. Alternatively, fans can subscribe to your YouTube channel and keep up to date with your uploads. Therefore, websites like YouTube would be able to exhibit our video as you do not need to be mainstream and popular in order to exhibit your video. All you need to do is upload it yourself.
