Most music videos, tend to have a mixture of elements from both narrative and performance techniques. this tends to be very effective as it is good to see a artist performing although too much could become a bit boring and repetitive for the viewer, So by including a storyline makes the video more interesting without becoming complicated as it is split up with performance scenes.
Examples of both Narrative and Performance video's are,
The All-American Rejects - Gives You Hell:
I Like this video, I like the narrative it as i find it very interesting to watch, i like how it also contains elements of humour as this adds to the interest. I really like the parallel editing and how its used to emphasise the contrasts between the two characters the band's lead singer plays. I also really like the use of quirky settings, props and locations.
Oasis - Stop crying your heart out:
I like the blend of both narrative and performance in this video although i dont think the story in the narrative is a strong as others i have seen, it is still very intresting to watch. I like how the pace of editing is slow and this goes perfectly with the song. I really like how there is alot of close ups to show facial expressions as i think the song is an emotional and personal song.
The kooks - Shine on:
I really like how the Narrative and Performance is set in the same location, i like how the diffrent camera angles and movements are used to make the video intresting aswell as the mix between narrative and performance. I love the use of quirky props and the Mise-en-scene of the location is very quirky I would like to create a similar effect in my groups video however i'd like ours to be more girly as ours is pop genre.
