Our media product challenges some conventions of folk rock music videos while adhering to others. We kept the band members stationary while performing and did not include intertextual references.

The document discusses conventions and techniques used in folk rock music videos. It notes that artists are typically shown performing alone in natural settings like forests or fields. Visuals are usually illustrative or amplifying of song lyrics. Close-ups of the artist are common to promote them as the brand. Artists usually have longer hair and wear simple, minimalist costumes. Movement in videos tends to be slow and subtle rather than dramatic. The positioning of band members is usually equal without one person in the foreground. Intertextuality with other works is rare in keeping with the genre's focus on original songwriting.
