Conventions of a INDIE music video

Indie: In an indie music video there is often a mixture of narrative and performance and sometimes the whole band performs such as in the music video "OLYMPIC AIRWAYS" by Foals and other times just the main vocalist sings.
When Indie music videos do have a narrative they are often quite symbolic and do not amplify the lyrics.In an Indie music video there is:
- Special effects are sometimes used.
-There is a variety of close ups to show the main artist singing and other band mates performing as well as wide shots of the whole band.
-The colour of the video changes depending on the lyrics of the song and the tempo of the music it can be bright, dark and sometimes black and white.
-Editing is usually quite fast paced, the cuts are quick.
-The band wears casual clothing, clothing that only suits them.
