Comparing One Direction And The Exciters Music Videos.

One option we have for our Coursework is to create a music video. We watched both One Direction- What makes you beautiful and The Exciters-Tell Him.
These 2 music videos were made 50 years apart and so there are a lot of differences between the two of them.
Firstly, In the exciters video the camera quality wasnt very good and this is because when it was shot in 1962 they had a smaller budget therefore the cameras used were not of high quality. Whereas in One Directions video the picture is extreamly clear and precise as they had a much larger budget to use compared to the Exciters very low budget. Also, in the Exciters video there wasn't any other women in the video and animals were used instead, whereas in One Directions video there were a group of girls which the band used as eye candy for viewers and themselves. 
There were also some similarities between the 2 videos, firstly being that One Direction and The Exciters both used eye contact with the camera so that they make a good solid contact with the audience. This way the audience feel that the video is more personal. Also, both videos used the zoom on the camera to focus on the individual which is singing.
