Different types of music videos and examples.
Performance videos- This is when the music video predominantly shows the band/musician performing and there is no real backline or story to the video, an example is, One Direction- One Thing. In this music video the band are filmed in various places in London whilst miming the song.
Narrative- This includes a story and the music video is based around this story. It plays out as more of a movie with the song as a soundtrack, rather than a promotional music video. An example is Bob Dylan-Beyond Here Lies Nothin’. This video tells the story of two people and Dylan himself is not featured in the video.
Cameo- This is where the artist features in the narrative of the music video but is not seen performing an example is Panic! At the Disco- Lying is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off. In this music video the band can be seen acting in the music video but they are not performing at any point.
Mixture- This is when there is a narrative but also show the musician or band performing. An Example is Hinder-Better than Me. This shows the story between a man and woman in a relationship but also features the band playing in a separate location.
