Music video director - Case study



David Wilson- David Wilsons career in the music video industry began in his widely viewed animated and colourful music videos for Japanese pop stars. He has later combined live action and his fantastic animation skills to create symbolic and unforgettable cartoonish music videos for the likes of Royal Blood in their 'out of the black' music video. Throughout this entire video it encapsulates the audience in a medium of suspense , the video switches from scene to scene with a lot of different genres crossing over throughout , this makes his music videos not only interesting and unique to watch but also entices the audience.


However David's experience doesn't just stop with music video , he also works within the advertising industry creating commercials. Some artists and band he has worked with : Artic monkeys, David guetta, Lady Gaga and Royal blood. He also gained a Grammy nomination for his Arcade fire video 'we exist'.


He has won a number of awards : best director  UK music video awards 2014
Best Editing Uk music video awards 2015 Royal Blood Out of the black


He also was one of the founding members of the True/false film festival. In the seven years this festival has been running it has been gaining more and more attendance.
