Because our chosen song is ‘Little Monster’ by Royal Blood we naturally decided to research Royal
Blood as it will have a strong connection to our video in terms of music genre, target audience and
gender.We researchedintoRoyal Bloodsvideostosee if therewereanytipsthatmightinfluence our
video. We found that the most common theme of their videos was to either have a narrative story
with the band performing or to just have a narrative story.
One particular narrative video called ‘Figure it out’ took my eye as it has a very interesting narrative
story.Theyhave useda redand blue filtertogive the ideathatwomenisnormal whilstthe bluefilter
is on then when the red filter is on you can see her blood covered top which portrays her as a bit
psychopathic.

Another Royal Blood video we looked at was the song ‘Ten Tonne Skeleton’ has narrative and
performance in which we might use for out video. The story follows a women as she seems to be
running from something which we don’t really find out what it is. The performance is the most
interestingpart.Theyuse a varietyof differentshotstoemphasise thatthe bandare out inthe open
and they also use quick suits which fits in with the fast paced music.
