Looking at other bands within the alternative rock genre, we have created a list of common features that were easy to to recognise within these music videos.Editing EffectsOne of our finding were that a few music videos used different coloured effects, such as black and white and sepia. This is used to fit the style of the music and to help created the star image of the band. Another reason this effect was used is because the music is low tone and has a moderate tempo. This could suggest that the music video has been made with this effect to match the ton of the song. One video that used the black and white effect was Arctic Monkeys - One For The Road.
Another music video we looked at is Kasabian - Fire. This also uses the same black and white effect, as well as a sepia effect. We believe the sepia effect has been used to create an aged effect, as this makes the props look part of the music video. The black and white effect has then been used to create the CCTV effects as the robbery takes place.
Colours
In the Miles Kane - Rearrange music video, we see a range of different colours used. The bright colours reflect the fast tempo of the song whilst the dark backgrounds reflect the song when it is at a low tempo. This means that the beat matches the visuals and makes the music video make sense.
However there is no narrative to the video and this leaves questions in the audiences mind.
