Music Video inspirations

Fat Boy Slim - Praise You
  • Unusual - breaks conventions, no band bembers, in shopping center with dance group

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
  • Mise-en-scene, girls in anarchy tops relates to rebellious attitude
  • Smoke & low light with Grunge band members - very conventional

Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer
  • Very quirky, lots of artistical inspirational
  • One shot with lots of CGI - stop motion

Radiohead - No Surprises

  • One shot
  • Lyrics scrolling up like a teleprompter for him, like he's being forced to do it

Nirvana - In Bloom

  • Starts off quite odd - set in 50s, where the genre doesn't fit in
  • Similar style to Beatles video, then changed to a mickey take, starts destroying the place

REM - Everybody hurts

  • Starts with shown lyrics, moves to what people are thinking, gives a short insight into all the people shown
  • No performance until the very end, people seem to follow him like Pied Piper
