Director Study - Michel Gondry



These are just some examples of Michel's work.
The slide show talks about Gondry's success in film and music videos. Arguably his most successful film is Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind. This film explores the directors creativity and plays with the concept of remembering.

Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind Trailer 

Gondry has worked with various music artists creating iconic music videos, such as Around the World by Daft Punk. This video is iconic for the way it separates each of the dancers to move to a particular beat or rhythm within the song. 



Or Kylie Minogue, Come into my World. This music video uses rotoscope, whereby the video is traced over another to give the impression of more than one Kylie.



My final example of Gondry's work is The White Stripes, The Hardest Button to Button. This video we see numerous Jake Whites, this effect is created by using stop-motion.

  1. You need to do more textual analysis of the vidoe you include in your posts - look at the camerawork, editing, mise en scene etc
