Conventions of the pop genre

From conducting some research i can conclude that the list below are some of the common features and patterns of a pop genre music video...

. Men and Women portrayed in a modern way
. Often singing about and portraying emotion
. Often show Women hurting men 
. Sex presented in modern light: Sexual content usually shown
. Performance is usually more dominant that the story line
. Location: Black and white studio screens and abandoned settings

 The genre of my track also has some very strong country influences so i also researched the conventions of country music in order to also take country conventions into account when forming my music video...

- Instrument is usually visible within video
- Strong narrative
- Outdoor, old fashioned settings i.e woodland, barns and small towns, victorian setting

The research that i have conducted will help me in achieving an authentic music video that takes into account both of these genres.
