Pop videos typically tell stories about relationships through dance performances shot at beaches, parties, or holidays. They use bright lighting and shots that zoom in and out or show different angles. The artist maintains eye contact with the camera. Pop targets teenagers aged 14-22, especially females, as most pop artists are female.
Classical performances feature a main light and empty stage. The music expresses personal experiences through elegant videos using close-ups and zooms. Classical targets an older audience from 33-45 years old.
R&B videos prominently feature bling, flashy clothing and cars to portray lavish lifestyles. Locations include mansions and luxury homes. Lyrics discuss arguments over careers or relationships.
