Different Styles of Music Videos
•Performance: One Direction – “What makes
you Beautiful”. Lady Gaga. – “Poker Face”

•Narrative: Katy Perry – “Thinking Of You” . David
Guetta – “Titanium”
A story is created, sometimes the lyrics don’t match the visuals at all. Sometimes the artist doesn’t feature at all and there are just actors. Enigma codes.

•Conceptual: They are based
around an idea or image. Eg. Lady Gaga “Bloody Mary”, REM “Everybody Hurts” and
Ok Go “Here it Goes Again”
There can be a
combination of more than one of the above: 30 Seconds to Mars – From Yesterday
It would have been nice to see a bit more creativity here. You could have uploaded some images/embedded some music videos to show your understanding of the different styles.
