What music video directors deserve a DVD collection?
 
After the success of the "Director's Series" DVDs, I was wanting more. The idea was created by Jonze, Gondry and Cunningham, though, so I don't know would Palm Pictures do another set for other directors.

But this is hypothetical, of course. What music video directors deserve a DVD collection?

My choices...

Jonathan Glazer

He's done great videos. For example:

Jamiroquai Virtual Insanity
Massive Attack KarmaComa
Blur The Universal
Radiohead Karma Police, Street Spirit
U.N.K.L.E. Rabbit In Your Headlights

A couple of those are on DVD already on band compilations. He's also done some really artistic ads, for Guinness and Stella Artois. It'd be great to see a comprehensive release of his work.



David Fincher

Sure, he was much more pop music-oriented, but he made some GREAT videos - when he still made them. Some I like are:

The Rolling Stones Love Is Strong
Madonna Vogue
Aerosmith Janie's Got A Gun



Mark Romanek

The guy's imaginitive as all hell.

Michael & Janet Jackson Scream
Nine Inch Nails Closer, The Perfect Drug
Johnny Cash Hurt
Madonna Bedtime Story



Stephane Sednaoui

A director with stuff on DVD already, again. Considering the treatment the Smashing Pumpkins videos were given, I'd like to see a DVD of Stephane's work.

Garbage Queer
U2 Mysterious Ways, Discotheque
Bjork Big Time Sensuality



Anton Corbijn's another good one with more videos than I can remember.


Anyone else? I put this in "movie talk", since we're really looking at the short films of prolific directors.

I want "Virtual Insanity" on DVD badly. My favorite music video ever.

You also forgot David Fincer done a video for A Perfect Circle, with the song 'Judith'.

Michael Bay? :D

Living, I didn't forget anything.

I simply posted some of my favorites. I'm sure that if you wanted a comprehensive list, you could find one online, perhaps in the "other works" bit of IMDb.

Definitely Mark Romanek, Mark Pellington, and Wayne Isham.

Who did the November Rain video for GNR? That was awesome...

I'd like to see David Fincher's work. I have a Rick Springfield concert DVD (repeat that and I'll deny it! :) ) that he directed, and one of the Michael Jackson videos was done by him on the Dangerous DVD I think, but I'd like to see a bunch of his early stuff in one place.

He'd be my choice....slightly biased with being a Depeche Mode fan given his involvement with them.
However..given his work with artists such as Joy Division,U2,Echo & The Bunnymen,Nirvana,RHCP,Travis and being a famed photographer i'm sure he has to be considered for part of Palm Pictures 'Directors' series.
