Well known
conventions of a music video include the artist, instruments, lip syncing,
mise-en-scene, performance, narrative, editing to the beat, lyrics, the actual
song, change of costume and location. We know these are conventions of music
videos as they appear in most if not ALL music videos. The mise-en-scene will
always depend on the genre of the music video but we know the conventions in
which genres this will apply in. Some videos do not always include the artist
and include an actor/actress/'normal people' or other celebrities but there is
always a label on music videos (mainly on TV) telling everyone who the artist
is and what the song is called. Editing to the beat is key to a music video
except in some aspects of narrative.
