Audioslave have a good few music videos so I went on to youtube to refresh my memory, gain a bit of inspiration and get the feel of the band's music videos.
Heres some links to different types of their videos:
Performance - Like A Stone, Be Yourself, Cochise and Revelations
These videos, although purely performance are very good in my opinion because the cinematography is ace. They also have the repeatability factor because there's not story you'll see and not care about seeing again. Revelations is my favourite video in this type as its edited extremely well with some interesting effects.
Narrative - Show Me How To Live and Doesn't Remind Me
I like Show Me How To Live as its a really exciting video which gets its inspiration from the 70's car chase film, Vanishing Point. Doesn't Remind Me isn't such a watchable video as, despite its making a strong political point about Iraq featuring a son who doesn't know his dad is dead while the mother worries about what's next, it's quite dull.
The Best Video - Original Fire
Original Fire is on it's own because it's the best video of them all, it's mostly performance mixed with tons of images and it's all edited together really well. It's extremely repeatable cause it looks class.
Unfortunately for my video I will have no control over the performance aspect as I obviously cannot get the band to play. But despite this I believe the performance aspect to be essential in an interesting video, so I will be looking for resources that I can use for my project but definitely keeping it my own work with the majority of it the narrative aspect and any resources I do find re-edited.
