Genius Of Moving Image 3

How did Bjork and Chris collaborate on the 'All is Full of Love' video?

Bjork and Chris had mutual friends in London, and people had suggested that the two should collaborate. Bjork created the music for the video, and decided to create it after her album, so there was no marketing schedule. Bjork wanted a mini- film, and imagined it to be very white, as a kind of heaven. She visualised statues making love, and they would physically melt in the moment.

What techniques were used on the portishead video to create the unusual slow motion effects?

The boy was filmed inside a water tank. The bubbles had been removed digitally, and everything was then digitally inserted into a dark alley in post production.

What other music video directors have gone on to direct feature films? Name two and the feature films they have made.

David Fincher, known for The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button  and The Social Network

Michael Bay, known for hit films such as Transformers and Armageddon.

Which famous sci - fi film did Chris Cunningham's work on before he became a director?

Cunningham was working at ”Artificial Intelligence” also known as ”A.I.”.

What makes his work different or original compared to other similar directors?

The most major quality that Chris Cunningham has is that he creates his visual imagery from listening to the music, and generates ideas through sound. He also edits most of his works, and works on the set and visual effects, contributing a lot to the production and post production to get a final film that's close as possible to what he imagined.
