Genre Conventions/Characteristics

To update and ease the need for our group. We've decided to make a list of typical conventions used for the genre of music we made our animation for.

• Shows the artist/band through out the video
• Some special effects utilized
• Usually a calm setting, but gradually develops into something bigger when music's rhythm kicks in
• Black and white filter may be used
• Tends to have a narrative
• Close ups of the artists/band are often incorporated.
• Live show performances.

Example groups include:

• Snow Patrol
• Jamie T
• Kings of Leon
  
• The Fray
