4 genre music video



This music video by Franz Ferdinand is a good example of a indie rock music video because the conventions of an typical indie rock music video can be seen in this music video, the conventions shown is lip syncing, lip syncing is shown throughout the music video because the conventions of a music video is that the main singer of the band is lip syncing throughout the music video to enable us to understand who the band members are and who the lead singer is. another convention of the band is having a shot with all the band members together playing there instruments and singing. the mise en scene for this music video is an old fashioned school building because the video is based around and old fashioned projector, the costume for the band is a typical indie rock music video because they are all dressed up in smart suits and casual clothes and these types of clothes can be seen in other music videos based around the genre indie rock, the lighting that is a mixture of high key and low because the video is based around switching between the projector and the teacher speaking.
