Some cool music videos and shorts

There are a lot of different kind of music videos out there. Most of them are usually not that creative. It is also quite current, that good music video directors grow out into film directors with their own special and personal styles. I really do appreciate creativity and personality, when directors put their own individuality in their work. I do often enjoy moving pictures not only because of the story, but because what it offers visuallyThats why I love "Science of Sleep", "Requiem for a Dream", "The Fountain", "Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain" or Tim Burton's movies. The director of the first one, Michel Gondry (also directed the "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" used to do music videos and commercials). Here is one he made for Björk's song "Human behaviour":



Some other videos (I do not know all their dircetors :-S) I really like for their creativity, cool ideas :-)

"Her morning elegance":



Laid Back: "Baker Man", video directed by Lars von Trier. Really stupid, relaxed and I love it :-D

A cool short film I saw at the 13. Kurzfilmtage Winterthur: "Photograph Of Jesus" by Laurie Hill in association with the Getty Images Short & Sweet Film Challenge



Another very cool short from the Fantoche2010 Festival, "Notebook"



A hilarious short film from Michel Gonry: "One day..."
