There are three main types of music videos: abstract videos that have little connection to the song, narrative videos that depict the lyrics of the song, and performance videos that show the band playing on stage. Many successful music videos combine narrative and performance elements to both tell a story through the lyrics and showcase the artist. When making a good music video, it is important to consider the genre, camerawork, editing, how the video connects to the lyrics through narrative and performance, the band's image including their clothing and location, which need to appeal to the intended audience.
