Boyz II Men- I'll Make Love to You
The video that I have decided to analyse is one of there greatest hits "I'll Make Love To You" done by one of the most successful Groups of the late 80s and 90s produced by Motown records, Boyz II Men.
The content of the song is very clear from the title where the story is about a young man who is in a sense willing to go and make love to the woman he loves. Therefore the video has very clear explicit meaning in that the man himself is not able to approach the woman and tell her face to face hence he writes what he feels. therefore the role of Boyz II Men in the video is to dictate the message the young guy is going to give to the woman.
The video at the same consists of implicit meaning due to the fact in behalf of the target audience the lyrics cannot fully be illustrated through the video. But the majority of the target audience would agree with the dominant response by recognising the environmental message.
The video still conforms to a typical music video however in regards to the artist being the main subject in the video. however through low key lighting the implicit meaning behind the video is to highlight that what they are singing about is seemed to be heavenly.
At the same time people can argue that the video is a form of disjucture in that it is telling a mini film. Where the target audience can relate to and understand I.E the location has a very explicit meaning in that the scene set is in almost like the woman is in preparation for making love.
