Band Research- Shinedown

As Director i decided to look at other bands that are similar to The Vees, Shinedown an indie/rock band founded in 2001 are similar in there band members they also consists of 5 members. i looked at a few of the bands videos and found similarities that might help us in our project.

The setting in most of the videos the setting seems to commonly be derelict houses or buildings,this is also quite common in indie music videos, a derelict setting i think would be affective in the song we have been given the song is about a break up which reflects the old and abandoned love of the couple.

Another aspect of the Shinedown videos i wish to bring forward as an idea for our music video is the first shots they use of the band preparing for their performance this would include close ups of the instruments and other equipment such as amps, i find these shots affective when promoting a band on their first video.
