NVC

Costume:
Band- Conventional indie clothes e.g skinny jeans, polo shirts, possibly brands such as Fred Perry and Doc Martens. Showing a working class background.
Party guests (pre dress up)- Really dull clothes, standard top and jeans. Brown, grey and blacks. 
Party guests (post dress up)- Silly outfits and make up e.g onesies, hats, glasses, exaggerated make up, wigs

Posture and gestures: 
Band- Confident, close ups of lead singer, energetic e.g jumping around, coming right up to the camera, walking backwards, eye contact, dancing 


For example, Johnny Pierce from The Drums dances around and is very confident around the camera.
Party guests- Frozen for the majority of the video, lifeless, expressionless until the end where they come to life e.g jumping around, dancing

Facial expressions:
Band- Happy, smiling but not overly cheesy (an indie band is to look cool) 
Party guests- Expressionless until post make over where they become happy-exaggerated happiness

Space:
Band- Lots of close ups, in the face of the camera, range of shots to establish whole band e.g pan and long shot, lead singer moves with camera
For example Justin Young from The Vaccines is shown here in a close up shot as he is the lead singer of the band. 

Party guests- Pan to establish all guests, close ups on actions towards them, camera moves to them not vice versa due to them being frozen, dynamic use of camera to give atmosphere have movement despite their stillness

Voice:
When the vocalist sings the chorus he often goes high pitched and shouts therefore at these points in the song we must accompany them with different images to the rest of the song. This is also the most upbeat point in the song so the band would have to be very energetic.
