The narrative Clip is most appropriately understood as a short silent movie to a musical background, the narrative clip followed a story that is visually easy to follow. A pure narrative clip contains no lip sync to the words.
The narrative structure is as followed.
We begin with the Equilibrium, the characters diegetic world before the events of the story unfold. The protagonist and the antagonist, the good and the bad. Then we have the disruption, caused by the antagonist, then followed by the quest of the protagonist to correct the antagonists bad deeds. The final part of the structure is the Climax/Resolution, followed by a Re- Equilibrium. The Re-Equilibrium being that the antagonist Robber is then captured by the Protagonist police officer.
A Classic Example of a performance clip would be
Example – Last Ones Standing
Art / Abstract Clip
A Art clip is a music video that contains no perceptible visual narrative and contains no lip synchronised singing, then it is a pure art clip. The clip also contains a various amounts of unrelated material and has nothing to do with the lyrics of the song. A prime example of this type of music video is.
Boards of Canada – Macquarie Ridge
Performance Clip
In these kinds of music videos, we see the band or performer, playing their instrument to the camera head on, this method is often used to sell the artists, perhaps in their clothes in the sense that the performer is no longer a performer anymore and is now a materialization of the commercial exhibitionist.
Another type of performance within music videos is that of the televised band.
A prime example of performance videos could be Mumford and Sons ' Roll away your stone'
