Michel Gondry: Director Study



An example of Gondry's manipulation of 'mise-en-scene' in his music videos:



My favourite Music Video of Gondry's, 'Like a Rolling Stone'. 


Initially written by Bob Dylan, The song has been covered by numerous artists, varying from The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Rolling Stones, The Wailers to Green Day. This is one of my favourite pieces of Gondry's work because of the extreme use of camerawork editing, often turning a standard mid-shot into what we would similarly compare to the 'fish-eye' lens effect today, a style of 'morphing'.
