Pitch
The document discusses a music video, digipak, and magazine advertisement that the creator will produce for the indie band The Academic. The creator chose the indie genre because it allows for creative freedom and a wide design choice. The products will be released through the indie record label Jagjaguwar, which the creator feels is a good fit due to its variety of small, unknown bands and some larger bands. Conventions of the indie genre like montage footage and a consistent style across products will be followed. The target audience is identified as males and females aged 16-25 based on research into the typical indie audience.
Detailed Analysis of Circa Waves - Fossils
The document analyzes the music video for the song "Fossils" by the indie band Circa Waves. It identifies several key conventions of indie music videos through its analysis of technical elements like camerawork, editing, costumes, and props used in the video. These conventions include the use of retro filters, tour footage, a DIY aesthetic created through handheld camerawork and amateurish editing, and the inclusion of performance elements and a range of locations to portray the band as touring musicians. The analysis concludes that the video effectively incorporates many conventions of both form and genre for indie music videos.
