MUSIC VIDEOS AS AN ART FORM

[online prowler]

Thread concerning music videos - old & new - in the context of cinema and art. Feel free to post all genres with a focus on the æsthetics and technical.

anything involving Gondry, Spike Jonze and Cunningam.
In fact I have three collection of their work.

Gondry is one of the BEST visual eye at the moment. Despite the fact I am not very fond of White stripes, the stuff he has done for them are incredible.

All pioneers. Have to take up their works again in the near future. Been a time since last.


Vincent Gallo "Honey Bunny" Directed by the artist himself.

Coil "Ostia (The Death of Pasolini) directed by PC

[Andrew McIntosh]

And this self-aware video by The Roots is a hoot(s): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmTPM4aUDW8

Of course, the jokes on them though - the non-subtitled version on YouTube has 20+ times more views...

Had to turn off the sound to watch that. I'll give them credit for giving me a bit of a giggle but it doesn't matter to me how "ironic" or "self aware" anything is. I can't watch Black Metal videos for much the same reason.

Thinking about it; I only like the first 2 Gorrilaz albums the rest eat a dick.
Here's a video from their first album.
