Abstract Video

I chose this video as an abstract video because even though it contains lip syncing there us the constant use of triangular shapes being painted on to the bodies creating an abstract look. The colours and repetitive shapes used within this video also help it to look artistic which is another feature of abstract videos.

Narrative video

These are two examples of a narrative video:




I chose these two clips because even though they do contain some lip syncing, it is still obvious what the narrative if the video is and the music videos can be watched and followed as if it were a short film. Both videos are also longer than the average song length, meaning that some parts were added into the video to help complete the narrative.

Performance video

Here are two examples of performance videos:



I chose these two videos because they both consisted of performance. Back up dancers were used in both videos making them seem more performance like. Also there was often a change in setting. In the 'Baby one more time' video, there was an added scene before the music started of Britney Spears in the classroom, which is also a feature which is sometimes used in performance videos.
