Genre analysis

In my class we have done a genre analysis and watched 3 music videos which are completely different to each other. This is my research on what kind of genre I would want to use for my music video. This is the videos and the analysis:


Song 1: Something Kind Of OOOH by Girls Aloud

Performance, narrative, concept:
This music video is performance based type and it has a typical kind of girls dance
Genre expectations:
Pretty girls, catchy song, a lot of body shots, dance routines, glamourusly dressed, a lot of make up
Examples: 
A lot of make vulgar make up, a lot of open clothes, showing the body, dance routine which is very seductive, winking, a lot of close ups of the mouth while singing, fast expensive car.


Song 2: Supermassive Black Hole by Muse

Performance, narrative, concept:

Performance and concept

Genre expectations: 

Playing the instruments and showing the skills of playing, the quality of the sound.

Might see some close ups of the lead singer singing, close ups of the instruments.

Examples: 

Very weird idea of the video, a lot of interesting props are used, different costumes which look very interesting and intreating, a lot of mirrors round the rooms.

The video itself is interesting but kreepy and a little bit disturbing.

Song 3: Fit But You Know It by The Streets 

Performance, narrative, concept:

Performance and concept

Genre expectations: 

Rap-pop. Kind of talking when singing, maybe a bit random. The video itself maybe weird

Examples: 

Walking around the streets of London the coldness and the grayness a bit of a chivy place. 

the photos are bright and colorful from a holiday and the singer talks through the photos, a lot of close ups of the photos. 

The singer on the street is not the only one singing someone else on the pictures is also singing.
