What Makes a Good Music Video?

What makes a good music video?
  • A clear narrative
  • Editing which matches the tempo of the music
  • An original concept
  • Using lots of different shots 
  • Using different shot types and camera movement
  • Using a range of props and costumes
What are the conventions of music videos?
  • Having a narrative
  • Editing in time to the tempo of the music
  • Having lip sink within the video
  • Switching between different sets
  • Having costume changes throughout the video
  • Using different shot types
What conventions would you include in your own work?
Probably the majority of them because they help to make music videos appear professional, however I'll still make my video unique so that its not boring and plain. I also might not use a narrative in my video and instead go for an abstract theme which mainly relys on editing so that my videos different to most of the videos out there.
