In What Ways Does Your Media Product Use, Develop or Challenege Forms And Conventions of Real Media Products?

We used the shot of the guitar many times throughout the music videos as it is a frequently used shot in any indie/rock music video. This is a big convention in this type of genre as the fans are able to see the band playing the guitar and makes it effective especially if there is a guitar solo, this is because their fans get to witness them playing the solo. These shots are rarely shown in pop music videos as them playing instruments is not true to their identity as a band or artist.

This is a very common shot in all music videos. It is a shot of the lead singer/ the actor lip syncing looks into the camera while singing as it allows the viewer to feel that the singer is staring at them or even singing to them. This also brings more focus to the lyrics of the song as there isn't much to look at visually so the viewer listens more to the lyrics.
This is a shot that is used and most commonly seen in a music video including a band or multiple members. Normally the lead singer will be at the front and then the other members would then be behind playing their instruments. These are almost in every rock music videos.

This shot is usually used in a movie. Normally for a romantic reuniting of two people who haven't seen each other or have been separated for some reason. This is the reason why used it as it shows our two actors are in love with each other. This shot breaks conventions as this shot is rarely used in music videos.

This shot is rarely used in the genre of music videos but more commonly seen in more pop music videos than indie/rock. This is usually used as a product placement shot to improve the funds which they will earn of the music video. However we did not use this shot for this we used it to further instate that the woman was little red riding hood and the werewolf had a relationship with her.


This shot is very similar to the entire band shot however it is at a different angle. This make the shot more intimate as you are closer to the separate band members as there are less members on show however it still leaves the impression that all the band members are performing.


This shot again completley breaks convention as this shot is usually found in romantic genres of films and music. Which this song is neither.
