Illustration is when the video tells a story corresponding to the lyrics in a song, Amplification is applied when a video introduces new meanings that do NOT contradict with the lyrics of the song, but add a greater depth of meaning & Disjuncture is when there is little or no connection between the lyrics and the video or when the video contradicts the video.
Disjuncture
This video "Drake - Over" is an example of Disjuncture due to the lack of connection between the video and the lyrics. The video doesn't contradict the visual factors as of much, but the video is set all in one location just using different shots and angles which restricts its ability to connect with the words of the song even if there were any.
Illustration
As the name Illustration suggests, a video that uses this method will have plenty to look at and clearly follows a sequence and tells a story. "Kanye West Ft. T-Pain - Good Life" is a very good example of one of those videos, the visual features have a strong link with the lyrics and definitely follow a narrative and tell a story.
