Here is a video a student group made last year for their coursework, watching a few of them helped me understand what it was that I wanted to do in my group's music video and allowed me a chance to look at what shots work well and can be filmed easily.

I thought this video worked very well, because there were a few different locations, like my group plans to do, but it didn't become confusing and I always knew what was going on. The lead singer wasn't part of the narrative, and I think this worked well because he was the story teller for the man getting frustrated at his boss while he worked in the office, and it went very well with the music. An example of this is when the video cuts back and forth from the singer to the character very quickly in time with the beat as the song reached it's peak. The motif of the graffiti background for the singer is very good, because it fits in with the image of the genre of music, along with the costume he wears. The BMX rider is a good addition, because it allows light relief from the story line, as well as being well shot. The worm eye view shots during the chorus are reminiscent of the rap genre too, and can be seen in many videos.
