Genre Research - Music Videos

You Me At Six - Save It For The Bedroom: The editing and camera movements within this video are asthetically interesting. The video cuts quickly between narrative and performance, which is common in music videos for our chosen genre.

All American Rejects - Move Along: This image has a distinct aspect that we would like to experiment with in our music video. The lead vocalist of the band is dressed in different ways when he sings different words of the song. This is cut quickly. We would like to experiment with using this technique, but having different characters from the narrative singing the words from the title line.

The Futureheads - Heartbeat Song: This video is very colourful. It flicks between a narrative of a game show and performance of the band playing the song. We aim to combine a narrative and performance in our music video. This gives us inspiration into dofferent ways to shoot and edit.

The Twang Feat. Pro Green and Mike Skinner - Either Way: This video heavily features the vocalists and band of this song. There are a lot of meat shots in this video.

The Cribs - Mens Needs: This video comes from the indie genre, the same genre that we are looking at. We will take inspiration from this video in the way that it uses objectification of a woman to keep the male gaze. This is a performance video. We plan to use a performance in our video and this video has given us the idea to have girls walking around the band as they perform.
