When Tv was first introduced Mtv was the first channel to ever show a modern music video. The first video to ever be shown was The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star. In the video it was extremely experimental, including a number of different themes. One of the first successful videos that really did push the boundries of technology was Micheal Jackson - Beat It. As you can imagine for the audience at that time it would of been exciting to watch as it was a lot different to the videos that were around at that time.
Obviously since then conventions of music videos have changed becoming more experimental, for example the Gorillaz have pushed technology boundaries. As you can see compared to the Micheal Jackson video you can see how much technology has improved
A promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video, together with two of the following three options:

I've decided to choose this brief for my coursework because it was the one that I was most interested in, and believe I will do my best in. I've also decided to choose 'punk' for the genre of music, as that's the genre of our friends band that we have decided to use. I have decided to create a magazine advertisement and an album cover because my skills are more developed in that area of technology.
