Single V

Single V

A nihongo|Single V|シングルV| is a type of DVD released by artists who are part of the J-Pop idol conglomerate, Hello! Project.

Single V

A Single V is often released in coordination one or two weeks after the release of a Hello! Project single. Most artists follow this pattern, except a few including Melon Kinenbi. A Single V will usually contain the promotional video for a single, an alternate shot of the video, like a dance shot version, or a close up version, and making of footage of the video or CD jacket photo shoot. Aya Matsuura's Single V for "Kizuna" contains the promotional video for the song, a close-up version of the video, and a making of clip.

Lately, a single will also be released in a limited edition version that contains a DVD with a different, alternate promotional video than is on the Single V. v-u-den's "Koisuru♥Angel♥Heart" Single V contains the promotional video, as well as a "white angel" version of the video, while the limited edition DVD that came with the cd-single contains the "dance shot" version of the video.

Event V

Sometimes, an nihongo|Event V|エベントV| will be released at Hello! Project fan club events that will offer alternate shots of a promotional video, or bonus footage, like backstage footage or footage from a photo shoot not released anywhere else. An example of this would be the Event V released for Morning Musume's single, "Resonant Blue", which contained: an alternate, still-camera shot of the promotional video; TV spots for the single; making-of footage for the jacket cover photo shoot; and a collection of photos of Morning Musume. All the contents of this Event V were exclusive to it and were not released anywhere else.

Other Event Vs include Morning Musume's "Roman ~My Dear Boy~", "Iroppoi Jirettai" and "Kanashimi Twilight", ℃-ute's "Sakura Chirari", "Meguru Koi no Kisetsu", "Tokaikko Junjō", "Lalala Shiawase no Uta", "Namida no Iro", and album "3rd ~Love Escalation~", and the Event V for Maki Goto's "Daite yo! Please Go On", nihongo|"Event V "Kochira Gocchin!"|イベントV「こちらごっちん!」|

Single V Clips

nihongo|Single V Clips|シングルVクリップス| are a collection of promotional videos, usually formerly featured on Single Vs. An example would be Berryz Kobo's nihongo|"Berryz Kōbō Single V Clips 3"|Berryz工房 シングルVクリップス③| For Morning Musume, however, they are called Single M Clips. Morning Musume have released 4 of these, the most recent being nihongo|"Eizō The Morning Musume 4 ~Single M Clips~"|映像ザ・モーニング゙娘。4 ~シングルMクリップス~|.

These extended DVDs contain the promotional videos from a varying span of time, alternate versions of the videos, often featured on the Single V that the video originally came from, and the TV spots for the singles.

Although Hello! Project singles are usually accompanied by a Single V, frequently when a single is released near the same time that a Single V Clips is released, the single will not have a regular Single V. Instead, the promotional video and alternate shots of the video will appear on the Single V Clips.
