Abstract
Music and video can interact with each other in various ways to help the audience understand the message of the end product better than if one were to be used individually. A collaboration of music and video can make it easier for an audience to be able to emotionally connect with the artist and the meaning they are trying to get across. Emotions have always been integral to all types of artwork, but also play a part in how we interact with the world around us. Recent advances in technology make it possible for an artist to express themselves creatively while creating a real-time connection with an audience.
