Performance Music Video

A performance music video is generally a music video that is performed on a stage and sometimes in front of an audience. It is usually of the band performing the song and dancing to it. An example of this is Shia Lebouf by Rob cantor which was performed on a theatre stage.


Another situation that is generally for performance videos is the use of clips from real life ad from concerts where the song has been performed. This isnt normally what the entire video consists of as this would be quite difficult to use as a music video but it sometimes does happen. Most videos that do this though tend to use clips or transition into the live performance from a generic music video scene. An example of this is Jan Egeland by Ylvis
