The Kooks - Always Where I Need To Be
The opening shot uses pull focus as the background is in focus to show the urban setting. The foreground looks to be a silhouette due to the dull/dark lighting, by this we can see the figure holding a guitar. There is clear depth of field between the building and the guitar, due to the focus, as well as the amount of detail.
A worms eye view is used to show the sky in the evening as this appears quite dreamy and calming. This may reflect the style of the music video.
Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger
This establishing shot uses pull focus to attract the audiences attention to the white chair. There is framing through a rail which acts as if someone is looking in on the chair. In addition, a long shot is used to support this. The white chair is in center frame because this is the main object in the shot. The connotation of white is innocence and purity, which links to the chair as this is a child's chair and these connotation are usually associated with them.
A performance shot is used for the establishing shot which may suggest that this is a performance based music video. The black silhouette of the band works well with the pink lights in the background. Furthermore, the lights are pink because the bands brand identity is pink therefore the audience instantly knows who is performing.

A low angle shot is used to show that the band have power and status. This shot is in black and white which suggests that the whole music video will be like this, this adheres to indie conventions. This shot is performance as the band are seen with instruments, this therefore suggests the music video is heavily performance based.
Florence & the Machine - Shake it Out
An extreme close up of Florence Welch is used as an establishing shot. This shot could suggest that the video is performance, as we know she is the lead singer of the band.
