Michael Jackson

King of the Pop Video

Early videos with the jackson five such as "Rockin Robin" in 1971 the music video is actually very basic and just focuses on promoting the song with the dancing and costumes matching fashion at the time.

"Rock with you" the video focuses on Michael and his costume which is very hard to miss as it appears to be composed entirely of sequins. Like Rockin Robin the video is promoting the song and beginning to show Michael's own style such as his dancing.

Jackson's next big hit was Billie Jean in 1982

the beginning of the video doesn't even include Jackson, he has already sung a few lines before we actually see him in person,this video furthers his talent for dancing and his sense of style.



 

"Beat It" In 1983 is what really set of Jackson's career with his famous style of dance and costume. The video featured a lot of other dancers so the choreography must have taken a long time and multiple takes would have needed to be filmed.

 

Of course Michael Jackson's most famous song and video is "Thriller" it had a Budget of £500,000 when it was filmed in 1983 and quickly rose to top of the chart and since its release it has won many awards from best video album to viewers choice.
