​We Have Band ‘Tired of Running’ 
o Mysteriousness caused by the location of the woods, emphasised by the use of smoke – supposedly fog. It is not clear what the band run from, but the choice of location and use of mirrors make the video have a slightly psychedelic, tense feel. This follows the convention of indie music videos being either entirely performance or narrative based. This video is narrative based with the opening and closing shots being performance sets. Clothing is casual and the lighting varies from scene to scene, but it appears that the brightness increases as the video progresses and as the band run out and away from the fog/smoke.
