[Research] Analysing costume, setting and location in music video genres

1.) 22 by Taylor Swift - Pop

 















2.) The Man Who Can't Be Moved by The Script - Rock

3.) Summertime Sadness by Lana Del Rey - Alternative

 

 

From the research carried out, I have noticed that in many videos the number of costume changes is directly proportional to the locations, however it is not always true (as seen in Summertime Sadness). Pop music videos often include a wider variety of locations and greater numbers of costume changes, and in rock music videos there often isn't that much variation. Props such as instruments are also vital for rock music videos as it's a convention that is often followed by artists and bands.
