Deconstruction of an
Indie Music Video
This first screen shot immediately tells the audience it is
likely that it is an indie band, this shot connotes that we should look past
the lead singer sometimes and appreciate all of the band members. The
convention of them using instruments throughout the video is apparent here, the
clothing and hair is also very conventional with the scruffy but cool look. The
lighting is again dark background with an illuminating warm light on the
singers.
Throughout the video there are montages of them out and
doing normal things which lets the audience see them for real and normal people
as well as someone they admire, those shots and this shot of them in the studio
allows the audience to feel closer to the band in a different way, its as if
the band are inviting them to become a part of their lives, which makes them
more appealing but also more intriguing, throughout again, the lighting stays
dark in the background and illuminates the band members, ensuring the focus
stays on them.
