Features of a Performance Video- Performance videos often use a variety of shots and angles as well as repeated sequences/settings.- The videos will either focus on the solo artist (through camerawork) or will show band members performing/playing instruments. - They can be filmed as a live performance or inside a studio- They can show the artist in ‘real life’ situations - The performance often involves dancing, multiple locations and costume changes.- They might have a particular visual style or use of clothing that is associated with the artist or band. - Sometimes performance videos have a narrative woven into them, this is called a broken narrative.

Advantages and Disadvantages of a Performance videoAdvantages - Performance videos highlight the artists as performers.- Performance videos give a sense of authenticity to the artist, giving the audience the most realistic image of the band. - The cost of production for a music is relatively cheap as the producers are essentially filming a live performance with a relatively low production value. Disadvantages - The downside of performance videos is that the band has to be established for the video to be pulled off/maintain audience interest.
