Don't Look Back Into The Sun - The Libertines
This is another of my 3 choices ...
Like most Rock genre songs, "Don't Look Back Into The Sun" uses a lot of performance based footage, from what appears to be an actual gig, most likely as that song is being performed. The performance is done by a handheld device, almost as if a member of the audience has done it on a mobile phone. This gives off the impression that you are there. The other half of the video is filled with footage of the band sort of 'messing about' around in different locations, towards the build up to the gig. They are all done with a handheld technique - which is very common within modern music videos.
This music video doesn't really have a meaning, as such, it's more a video that shows lads being lads, which is something that the target audience (Male teenagers) can relate to. This tells me that sometimes a meaning is not necessarily important at all, and if it something the target audience can relate to, the music video will be appreciated.
Overall, I feel that if I were to choose this song, the majority of the video will be performance based; but to change it around from the original, I will probably add a little bit of narrative to the video.
