Of course, they gotta film the music video in a confined studio setting. What I mean is that there's an artistic choice to expose the barebones of a studio within the studio they film music videos in.A recent one from my side of the pop tracks is "IDEA" by Gen Hoshino. His videos tend to have some quirkiness to them, and this one goes full-on "We're filming on a set and the different areas of the set like the control board become setpieces".I was thinking recently about a recurring trend in pop music videos. Well, it's not really a trend, and maybe it's a reach, but it catches my eyes. It's kinda like the cliché of Beats headphones in a hip hop video, but without Dr.This became apparent especially after the music video for "No Brainer" came out.
