This is 'The Pretender' by one of my favourite bands; Foo Fighters.
I love this music video, and it is heavily performance based. In preparation for performing in our video i have been watching Dave Grohl perform; he is highly energetic and frantic, fully taking control of the space and remaining dynamic throughout.
Whilst not exactly the same genre as our song choice, both songs are loud and both require an energy filled performance.
A lot of the camera work is fairly static but the video remains awesome due to the bands commitment to the role. Also impressive is how much room each band member has, yet they still manage to completely command the space. Lots of head banging (long hair is great for frantic videos!), keeping the instrument moving, never keeping the feet planted and multiple facial expressions make this performance extremely successful, and hopefully we can reproduce something similar in our video.
