• The video will be controlled by the director, who will decide how it shall be portrayed.
• The video needs to be impressive enough to gain the artists recognition from a mainstream audience.
• The impact of a music video has become more widely received due to sites such as YouTube which broadcast an artist's video to a large audience.
