I looked through the analysis of American country and pop band music video and found many significant things that happen in the majority of videos. I analysed six videos and came up with these main generic features-
Angles
There are many close ups on the main singer and focus on the singer and a blur is added to the back picture. The band members are always shown as middle shot.
Camera Work
The camera worked used was a steady shot using the tripod to support the filming. Dolly wheels are also used to maintain a steady tracking shot.
Mise-on-scene
Within this genre they always have a guitar in the video. The country and western artists are often presented wearing boots and a dress.
Continuity
In eighty percent of the music videos I deconstructed they used short clips rather than continuity. The other twenty percent present a story within there music video which followed through in chronological order.
