Performance music videos mainly focus on the band or artist of the song, and show them playing in front of a crowd or on their own. These videos will normally show no, or little narrative and use a wide variety of camera angles.
An example of this is 'The Pretender' by Foo Fighters:
I used this video by Foo Fighters as it displays all conventions of a performance video.
It contains a variety of different camera shots and quick transitions to keep the audience entertained throughout the video.
It shows the band lip syncing and playing their instruments to the camera.
or
'Cousins' by Vampire Weekend:
This video by Vampire Weekend only contains one camera angle and displays the band, mainly Ezra Koenig, the lead singer, lip syncing and playing their instruments.
I used this music video as an example to a performance video as it contains no story line and mainly displays them preforming to the camera.
However, this music video differs to many other performance videos as it contains few different camera angles.
It shows the band lip syncing and playing their instruments to the camera.
