since our artist is indie acoustic i chose to look at James Blunt as he was similar earlier in his career. the main area im going to look at is the look of his music videos.
like most songs of the genre the general tone is quite mellow and calm. there is a strong theme of love or being in a relationship, all of this is backed up by the low tones and gloomy lighting. you also see shots of the 2 lovers together and apart in what seems to be a similar room, one difference seems to be that when james is alone the room is dark, but when their together or when his lover is alone the room is light, this could symbolize that she is the light of his life. The narrative is also quite evident as their is clearly a story about heartbreak running throughout the entire video. the way it shows them together and then apart gives an impression of slowly slipping apart.
