Abstract

Music video is a perfect tool to express visually concepts or aesthetics that accompany the sound message. This article deal around Derek Jarman´s short film Broken English: Three songs by Marianne Faithfull (1979), which was created by the British director to illustrate three songs by the singer. The video, filmed before the birth of MTV, it brings together three very different ways of approaching a music video, such as the one dominated by the presence of the artist, the one linked to artistic practices and other linked with video protest. This paper shall identify their main visuals characteristics and what would its place be within the production of the British artist.
