Research into Shot types and angles

I've realised that the best way to film a music video, is to shoot the same ideas over again, but from different angles, and then in the editing process, there is more footage for me to play with and fill in the gaps, should it be necessary.




Another video whcih does this is Coldplay - Vida La Vida. I've noticed that with the majority or performance based tracks, with a link to a narrative, most shots are the same just from different angles etc. My first idea was to sjust do each shot in order when filming, but after talking with my teacher, and looking at more music videos it has become apparent that this is unrealistic.
