Types of Music Videos

There are three different types of music video available to us:

• Concept Based Video - these videos are based around a single concept or idea, they tend to be fairly unusual and utilise a particular filming or editing technique. These types of video are more uncommon than the others.
• Narrative Based Video - contains footage that attempts to tell a story. They usually contain actors and will link to the the lyrics, but this isn't always the case. This is a common type of music video if the song features in a film, as film clips will often be played in the background.
• Performance Based Video - these feature the artist, band or group performing the song through most or all of the video.
