Folk Rock Music Video Research

Folk Rock music videos are usually show more of the artist in their videos in both performance and what narrative there is. However there is usually a lot of emphasis on performance as opposed to narrative based on my research. When researching Folk Rock I looked closely at the artists Bob Dylan and Jeff Buckley. This was because they were artists I was already quite familiar with and both of them (being solo artists) tend to focus on the artist rather than the narrative.
 For example in this music video despite the song being featured in the film "Wonder Boys" with numerous guest appearances in the videos (albeit from stock footage)the video always focusses on Bob Dylan as he sings, in both performance sections and narrative sections. Jeff Buckley on the other hand makes videos that are entirely performance. As Jeff Buckley was often fond of the music itself just telling the story. There are some videos of Buckley that involve some non performance shots however they are largely made up of random shots with 90% of the focus being on Buckley.
 
 This is a common staple of his videos:




From this so far I have largely taken away that our video should have near constant focus on the performer. Which perhaps means that our lead singer should also be the lead role in the narrative too.
