Tethered - Elliot Minor (2009)
The
band performing the song either in a dark
room – dark but low lighting coming through window – cuts between the
singer on his own and the whole band

Or perfoming
at night/evening outside in field/rural area
Uses close ups of band members and instruments

The narrative shows a man (or the singer in the band)
following his ex-girlfriend and her boyfriend. Shots of him looking at pictures
and handi-cam style shots of their past together (being together, breaking up).
Locations could include a park or town/café area.
I Can't Stay - The Killers (2008)

The performance cuts between a small stage or performance
area and an outdoors car park or large empty area where the whole band would be
performing the song.
Mid
– long shots would be used showing the whole band as well and the individual
members and close ups on their instruments.
Narrative shows couple arguing in rural location at sunset –
long shots showing their silhouettes.
Also shows past argument between the couple with one of them
leaving the other/moving out and then them getting back together/giving each
other another chance.
Exploitation - The Silent Comedy
Performance based video - mainly made up of shots of the band performing the song in
an empty room or rehearsal studio.
