Music videos commonly have :
- Videos performance of a song.
- Dance or a fragmentary story.
- Often use concert footage (sometimes)
- Quick cuts (editing), stylisations, fanciful or erotic imagery.
- Length of video as long as song.
- Can include all styles of filmmaking
A music video is a marketing device, its not a film to watch for enjoyment (it is but it isn't in some cases) it is actually an ad for the band, albums and that specific song.
Music Videos will often follow one or more of these things:
- Performance
- Narrative
- Concept
Performance - like a dance along to the music being shown or a concert (real or created just for the video)
Narrative - Showing a story of some kind.
Concept - showing idea of some kind, a challenging idea or just trying to portray something.
