The above images are taken from a Razorlight video and The Kooks videos. This just gives me an idea of the types of shots that are usually used and the composition of the shots as well.
The video above is by The Kooks- She moves in her own way.
This is an example of an Indie video.
From this video and others i can see that the conventions of an indie video are pretty much simular to an alternate video, however indie videos are less extensive in the way that they use everyday items and situations as well as keeping the video to a minimal affect. This basically means that the video mainly focuses on the artist/ band and their music rather than the fancy video and the fame of being a singer.
Conventions -
Close up of the artist
Shots of the whole band
Every day locations
Low key lighting
Investigation into genre is detailed and relevant. JIN
