As a concept, genre needs to be applied in terms of musical genres e.g. pop,rock, in relation to music videos.
Wales statement 'genre is... an intertextual concept' , which is applicable in music videos and even more so than film or television. Wales' suggests that genre exists in relation between mediums as apposed to the text itself. In our music video production, after research into the artist image, target audience and previous music video, we used references to the artist or other conventions that would be recognisable within that genre to the target audience. For example the artists image: costume,make-up and props, established the genre because this is how the artist is usually represented and therefore the target audience familiarize with her.
