A performance based is where the artist/band are performing the song just to the camera. I used Rihanna's - Where are you now video to explain this, in the video Rihanna dances and performs to the camera and there isn't much story line behind it, there are some shots where it changes to a story line but the majority of the video is performanced based. There is different locations to where the video is performed which keeps the video interesting.
Narrative Based Video
A A narrative based video is where the video is telling a story to the audience throughout, the story is usually about the lyrics they are singing about to help get a feel of the storyline. In Beyonce's If I was a boy music video she sings about if she was a boy in the relationship, through out the video she does things a man would do, this helps us understand the emotion in the video as we can see it happening.
A concept based video is when the video is based about an idea but hasn't got much to do about the lyrics, these could vary to many different ideas. Nicki Minaj's Superbass video doesn't focus on the lyrics at all, there is a lot of dancing and random storylines.
