Here are a few different possibilities for the soundtrack aspect of the video(s). I separated some examples into a few general categories, depending on what sort of direction the mood of the video ends up going. Keep in mind that these are only meant to illustrate the basic styles we could utilize, so just ignore the artist names, song titles, vocal parts, track length, etc. Please make additional suggestions and provide links if you can!


A)
This style is probably the most likely to affect the overall feel of the video ; very slow-paced, highly emotive and dramatic

B)
These also have more of a serious tone to them, albeit slightly less drastic ; more apparent use of electronics, which can elicit notions of progression, an emphasis on technology or the future, etc.

C)
Some more instrumentals ; basic/common sounding soundtrack type material

D)
Very low-impact, lighthearted songs that could easily function strictly as background music ; the sort of thing that appears in films like Juno or something

E)
Another option is using previously existing or well known songs - not the greatest option and it might make things difficult not using original compositions, but it does have its applications (mostly car commercials, it seems).

Oldies/60's Soul Music/etc:
