History of Music Videos

Pop Videos have been made since 1929. One notable example was of Bessie Smith, a very popular artist known for her Blues work during the time of 1920s-1930s. One of the first songs in which was made as a music video was of  St Louise Blue's.
This has included one of her own songs were involved, and was showcased for 4 years.
Fast forward to the 1980s, where MTV was launched in 1981, this was a contributor for changing the music genre, and has also allowed it to usher the golden age of music, more specifically, within music videos. The Buggles have released their music video for Video Killed the Radio Star, over time, they shifted a bit, instead of just focusing themselves to be music based, they eventually placed themselves to be within the entertainment genre. So in order to make themselves recognised as a entertainment company, they placed all their music and music videos to be within MTV Music, and they also have a lot of other channels that they have released over the course of time.


Now within this period of time, music videos have changed, different types of videos have been experimented with, and this allowed videos to advance, influencing different artists to be able to use some of the different genres and types of videos to be influenced with what they have eventually made.
