Research Into Similar Products: 'Best of Friends' - Palma Violets

Below is the music video for 'Best of Friends' by Palma Violets:



This has a good use of 'live' clips of the band, which gives a good feel as if the viewer is actually at one of Palma Violet's gigs.
There is also lots of clips of the band, captured as if the camera has been following them round. These shots inbetween the ones of them playing live help the audiance to almost get to know the band whilst you also have the feel of seeing them live, so you know the kind of people that they are you're watching and makes it more personal.
- From this video I would like to take the idea of showing clips of a band doing this they like to do, messing around and having fun so that I can portray what kind of people they are and get the people viewing the video to be able to be able to relate to them and feel that they almost know the band as people.

A similar texts that have used this style of a live performance is the music video to 'My Number' by Foals:

                                        



Smilar textsthat uses the style of showing bands messing about and having fun is the music video to 'Sunday Sunday' by Blur:

                                        

And Blink 182's music video for 'First Date':

                                        

However, both 'Sunday Sunday' and 'First Date' have a staged and scripted version of the bands messing about but will have some improvisation so that it doesn't feel unatural.
