research for my music video

1. Indie music videos

2. Arctic monkeys – Do I Wanna Know
This is a shot from the
beginning of the music
video, it is the picture
shown on the album cover.
The white and red
lines shown replicate
the sound that the
bass guitar makes
throughout the song.
This replicates all
different sounds from
the different
instruments.
Throughout the
video the white
lines form certain
shapes/pictures.
This then leads on to
showing coloured
pictures.
This picture signifies
the end of the song
much like flags signify
the end of a race.

3. Gorillaz – Clint Eastwood
This picture is shown at the
beginning of the video, it is an
introduction.
This then shows the band in
their renowned cartoon form
which is consistent
throughout all Gorillaz music
videos.
This figure is shown through the
rap part of the song, this may
relate to him wearing a hat and
a chain which is relevant to the
rap culture. Also he is a different
colour to the band and rap is
seen to be a black dominated
musical culture.
This is a shot of a group of
gorillaz just risen from the
graveyard chasing a band
member. It is an animated
scene.
This scene shows the band
made it and it was all a dream,
this is because the sun is out
and everything seems calm.

4. The Courteneers – Not Nineteen Forever
This scene is the opening
scene, it shows the band
talking while in a café.
This shows short close
ups of the singer,
singing the song.
This continues to show him singing
and there are a lot of hand gestures,
it is as though the other members
cannot see him or are just oblivious to
his movements.
This shows a young man
not from the band
sprinting through a
park/forest. (when music
goes upbeat)
This shows a lady in a
totally different scene,
supposedly who the
band is singing about.
This shows the lady in
the scene with the band
within the café, arguing.
This shows supposedly the
drummer tapping his
spoon to the drum beat.
This is shown like a sand
timer and is empty
when the songs is
finished.
