Comparison of the Satisfaction music video - Beni Banassi

Beni Banassi - Satisfaction 

                    

In a lecture we were shown this video by Beni Banassi, what I got from the lecture was that the viewers found the video to be strange, to strange to sell the music. So that they could sell the music they changed the video and updated the music video to the current video that everybody is probably familiar with now. What I like about the original is that the graphics used in the video, I think it gives the music video a techno effect and works well with the music, along with the typography and minimal colour scheme.  


This is the updated version. I think that the new version got better views because of the women that are placed in the video that attract attention and get more publicity. The choice of colours and upbeat activity in the video is what also works for the new population of viewers. Examples below.
