Planning - Style of video

When looking through different styles of videos, there are many different ways to shoot a vintage indie music video.  Something which I noticed is that in some videos, the ratio of the frame size are different.  This can be seen strongly in Jorja Smith's video 'teenage fantasy'.  This is something I am very fond of.  
This can also be seen in a lot of Lana Del Reys work, especially in the music video for 'Video Games'.  However, the difference between this technique used in Jorja Smith's and Lana Del Reys is that Lana uses many different ratio sizes throughout the video, but Jorja uses only one.  I think that each ratio size creates a different mood to a specific shot, which I am really fond of.  It also creates a vintage effect on the video.
In my own music video, I would like to use many different fare ratios to create different moods, context and representation fro different shots.  One way this could be used is to show the couple on film; a small ratio looks almost like a film reel, which could be representative of what the couple are like in the public eye.
