1. Music Video Theory
There are 3 main types of music video:
Performance
Show only the band/artist performing the song
It is the cheapest and easiest type of video to make, providing you can find a suitable
location
Uses a large variety of shots in an interesting location often with clips or images of other
things
Narrative
Shows a story to do with the footage linked to the lyrics, random or linked to a film
Often cheesy with break up songs
Conceptual
Usually nothing to do with the song or the artist
Random idea often with special effects
Often used to create an original video to make the viewer remember the song
