I STARTED THIS POST OUT TO BE 'MY TOP 10 MUSIC VIDEOS OF ALL TIME'. BUT THAT WAS TOO HARD TO DO. A LOT OF THE ONES I LOVE ARE BY THE SAME DIRECTORS SO THOUGHT IT EASIER TO TURN IT INTO MY TOP TEN MUSIC VIDEO DIRECTORS OF ALL TIME.
IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER HERE ARE MY FAVOURITE 10...
1. SAMUEL BAYER
HE PRETTY MUCH SET THE SECEN FOR GRUNGE VIDEOS IN THE 90'S. WE GOT SKY IN 95 & I VIDEO TAPED THESE ONES AND WATCHED THEM ON REPEAT. WAS ONLY RECENTLY I REALISED THEY WERE ALL DIRECTED BY THE SAME GUY SO THAT WAS OBVIOUSLY WHY I LIKED THEM STYLISTICALLY.
GARBAGE- STUPID GIRL
NIRVANA- SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT
HOLE- DOLL PARTS
THE CRANBERRIES- ZOMBIE
5. HYPE WILLIAMS
HER IDEAS ARE SIMPLE & ADMITTEDLY NOTHING NEW- THE CALIBRE OF ARTIST SHE WORKS WITH- BEYONCE DANCING IS ALL YOU NEED. I LOVE THESE VIDEOS BELOW & THAT SHE KEPT IT SIMPLE & LET THE ARTIST DO THE TALKING.
9. JEAN-BAPTISTE MONDINO
MOST OF MY FAVOURITE MUSIC VIDEO DIRECTORS ARE FASHION PHOTOGRAPHERS. THEY HAVE THE BEST EYE BY FAR. MONDINO IS MY FAV ART DIRECTOR OF ALL TIME.
MONDINO'S MUSIC VIDEOS, ADVERTS, CAMPAIGNS & RECORD SLEEVES ARE SOME OF MY FAVS OF MY FAVS OF EVER. HE REALLY SET THE SCENE FOR STYLE. WHEN I GO TO SLEEP AT NIGHT I DREAM OF MONDINO.
MADONNA- JUSTIFY MY LOVE
MADONNA- HUMAN NATURE
MONDINO IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR SOME OF MY FAV AD CAMPAIGNS.
HE DID THE WHOLE 'LE MALE' & 'CLASSIQUE' CAMPAIGNS FOR JEAN PAUL GAULTIER (MY FAV DESIGNER OF ALL TIME).
THE M I N U T E I SAW THIS AD I WENT OUT AND BOUGHT THE PERFUME.
MONDINO ALSO SHOT NENAH CHERRYS ALBUM COVER
& BJORK- DEBUT

MADONNA- CHERISH
HERB RITTS HAS ALSO SHOT SOME OF MY FAV IMAGES OF MADONNA...

11. STEPHANE SEDNAOUI
AS A FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER STEPHANE STARTED OUT SHOOTING AT THE FACE & NOW IS A REGULAR CONTRIBUTOR TO NUMERO, VOGUE & VISIONAIRE.
RED HOT CHILLI PEPPERS - GIVE IT AWAY
BJORK- BIG TIME SENSUALITY
HE DATED KYLIE & SHOT A LOT OF HER CAMPAIGN PICTURES & DIRECTED THIS VIDEO FOR THAT AMAZING TRACK SHE COLLABORATED ON WITH TEI TOWA. THIS ALWAYS SHOCKS ME THAT ITS KYLIE. AMAZING REALLY.
