Hereβs something most people overlook when it comes to video: visuals alone donβt maximize βmemorableβ. Visual + Sound does.
Research shows background music can double ad recall. That means viewers are way more likely to remember your brand when they hear something that fits the vibe.
Sometimes, big brands even let the music do the influencing. Theyβll use a familiar song as the βinfluencerβ instead of a person. Have you heard the music in the current βBetter in Denimβ GAP commercial? It catches my attention even when Iβm not looking at the TV. (Might even want a milkshake π)
When you add music to your video, youβre not just filling space. Youβre creating emotion, setting the pace, and giving people something to connect with. Pair that with strong visuals, and youβve got a message that sticks long after the scroll.
So as youβre creating, donβt just ask βwhat does this look like?β
ππ½ Ask: βwhat does this sound like?β
Because video isnβt just seen, itβs felt.
