- digital animated- which is the sole use of computer generated imagery for the whole music video. A example of this is "Weird Al Yankovic- Trapped in The Drive-Thru" This is used mostly by music videos of Electronic music however there are exceptions including the example that use this type of music video.
- live footage- music videos that include footage of the song making person/group doing somthing behind the scenes. Shown here by "The Beatles- Come Together" which is used quite often for boy bands.
- stop motion- videos created by taking many still images and changing something between every image to then compile and play at a speed to give the sense of animation. This is shown in "Peter Gabriel- Sledgehammer" This being a type of music video that is rarely used in the music industry.
- Studio footage- these music videos simply are made of recorded sessions of the song being sung in a studio. a example of this is "Take That - Rule The World" this is used by many different artists and groups of various genres.
- Cinematic- follow the lyrics to create a film level production values showing the situation described in the song to provide a more story based music video. this is shown in "The Cardigans- My Favourite Game" used quite often in mainstream pop music such as Rihanna and Lady Gaga.
- In concert- music videos are where the band is recorded playing the song live throughout the whole music video a example of this is "Nirvana - Smells like Teen Spirit" which had the bad playing with the crowd destroying the set around them. this style of music video is more commonly used for metal and rock bands such as Metallica
