The Kooks - She Moves In Her Own Way
Conceptual / Performance based
Shows band in what appears to be a small Spanish town which looks run down, gives the video authenticity.
Urban location - convention of indie music videos - understated.
Handicam used for many shots and this combined with the grainy appearance of other shots gives the video a home-made feel, helping to make the band appear more authentic.
Despite the home-made feel, shots of the lead singer are still shown frequently - convention of all music videos.
Band often shown together in various locations to make them appear like a group of friends i.e. sitting around a swimming pool.
Lead singer wearing classic indie clothes - skinny jeans, tight white tee shirt etc to clearly indicate their musical genre
No link between lyrics and events taking place
Only women shown are drunken girls at a party but are not represented too negatively as lead singer is in exactly the same position.
