The key features of a house music video include lyrics that set the mood, upbeat dance music, a genre informed by the visual style and themes, and camerawork that establishes the mise-en-scene to reflect the genre and theme. Typically, the video does not include the artist and instead features dancers at a festival, party, or night club wearing dressed up clothing to imply they are going out.
