Performance Based
These videos are shown with the band performing throughout the whole video. Artists in the rock genre frequently use this category. They use it as they like people to see them performing in their video, and not only that, the people like to see the bands performing in the video. An example of a performance video would be Guns N Roses' 'sweet child o' mine', throughout the video it shows them performing the song...
Narrative Based
A narrative based music video is a music video that tells a story, all the way through the video it shows someone's life, or of a situation to do with love or another subject. Songs that are featured in films, usually would use narrative based music videos, as they show clips from the film. For example, Bon Jovi's 'always', tells a story about him in love with a woman, but is not a reference to a film.
Concept Based
A concept based music video is based on a single idea, it uses the same filming technique or camera angle throughout, or it uses the same editing all the way through. Its basically the same thing all the way through the video with some changes within. An example is Ok Go - 'Here it goes again', the video is 4 people all walking along different treadmills, and doing different things on each treadmill, its a simplistic idea but still keeps the audience entertained somehow...
