I decided to analyse the music video Lake Michigan by Rogue Wave because I felt their music fit the indie genre of music which is the genre of music that my group and I wish to use for our music video.

This performance video promotes that band as an indie band due to the look they give the video. In this case the have given it and soft sepia tone to give the video and old fashioned and authentic look. This is a close up shot introducing a band member, giving him quit a mysterious look.

This band is perceived to look adventurous and different - they go on car journeys to the country side to play music in the wild.

We the see that it is a performance video after seeing close ups of there instruments which again reinforce their indie look because of the Mise-en-Scene. I also like the over exposed look that they achieve and fell it suits the indie genre.

The fact that the band are seen exploring nature is another indication to the fact the band are indie because wildlife is quite a common theme in this genres of music videos.
