13. Genre research 1

Genre research - Indie rock


From the mood board above the artists from our genre of Indie rock are presented as being something unique and funky. This is from what they're wearing, their CD covers and their behaviour in videos.
Also, from the research we've done we found that the majority or bands and artists from our genre are male. This could suggest that male artists/ bands have appealed to that audience better than female artists/ bands. 
Furthermore, each artist and band have created a unique image for themselves. This is represented in their pictures and videos. For example, Franz Ferdinand have depicted themselves as being smart, where as Two Door Cinema Club have a more relaxed image and feel about them. 


Each artist/ band has also invented a unique sound for themselves. For example, Two Door Cinema club have created a funky sound from their lead and rhythm guitars as well as their groovy drum patterns. 

This is an example of this from the song 'What You Know'.



By watching this the audience will notice the points I have stated above. Another example are the Fratellis. They have also created an image for themselves from what they wear, their style of music and other aspects of the band and their videos. One example of how they have created an image for themselves is from the old fashioned girl on the front of their CD and the girls being featured in their video, 'Chelsea Dagger'.









The audience will recognise this image as being part of The Fratellis.
