As you can tell from these screen shots the RnB song goes straight into the performance shots of the singer just singing to the camera, however there are a lot of different shot angles, where as the POP genre begins with a narrative which then goes into performance shots, however the shot angles are very similar, mainly mid shots straight on.

Locations

The RnB song is set in five different locations, all of which are very dull, plain dark rooms or outside in the rain, however there is one filmed in a club but the lighting is still dark. The POP genre seems to be filmed in a studio, with a set for them to perform in front of with colourful love hearts and background, there are also scenes where is shows the cameras which are filming them and dark places when the song turns sad.
