What is 99Dollarsmusicvideos ?
99 dollar music videos is a company which sets its users a target in which to make its videos in one day and to use 99 dollars or less, they also give you a strict rule where you have to do the video with the artist and collaborate each others ideas with one and other. Once you finished making your music video, the film maker will then submit the music video to the 99 dollars crew and then will let you know when they will upload on their YouTube channel for people to view and rate, this also gives a chance for film makers to show what they can do with 99$ and prove to future employers how good they are.
What is there ethos ?
99 dollars ethos is that they wish to keep every one on track and to make them stick to the rules, they also want the artist and the film maker to be creative with there work and to try and produce the best to there standards, however any cheating will result into the music video not being uploaded.
What Type of songs, labels genre appear on their website ?
The company focuses on people who have not yet made in respects to becoming famous. The website focuses on independent artists who haven't got a lot of money to spend, so in order they give them a budget of 99$ to make the video, that's why signed artists are not allowed to post a video on their you tube channel due to the fact they might bend the rules with more props because they have more money and outwitting the people who stuck to the rules. The website also has a wide ranged of genres and different types of music they cover R&B, hip hop, indie, rock etc. however the website to me personally covers more of indie and rock due to the fact that's how rockers wants themselves to be herd.
Encourage audience participation ?
The website encourages a lot of unsigned users to express there feelings in music without having to worry about to much of the fancy crops they have,also recently transferred there website onto a you tube channel in hope they can catch worldwide attention, through the hard work they put in however, they also have other websites to try and make people aware of there scheme and promote their website, for instance they have Facebook pages, twitter, Hotmail etc, so what this does is it makes it far more assessable then it is in order to try and catch the audience attention. The company also advertise there logo in order to catch the audiences attention due to the fact it mentions money "$99", they also add advertisement in the start of a music video for about 5 seconds to show who worked with the film makers and song artists to make the video.
Can $99 make it professional?
In some aspects yes but in some it has failed for an instance the videos are what you expect it to be because of the low budget however, this video really surprised me
