Bravia Advert
Not essentially a "music video" but it's brilliant video, and brilliant music, i'm sure you'll agree.
And for anybody who thinks "colour" is spelt wrong, there are places outside the U.S!
if that doesn't work....

Bright Eyes "At the Bottom of Everything" dir. Cat Solen
Finally, it's released!
Franz Ferdinand, "Walk Away" Dir: Scott Lyon
Franz goes into the 40s! Or 50s! Or something! A lot more serious than all their other videos. Windows media format only.
Go-Go's "Our Lips are Sealed (Remix)" Olivier Gondry
There's an elaborate story behind this.
www.nordstromsilverscreen.com/gogoVideo.html
Shortened: Nordstrom had Fatboy Slim remix the song, Olivier Gondry remix the video for their first in a series of video remixes. Nordstrom Silverscreen is a downloadable program. The Go-Go's video remix included is both HD-quality and clickable - you like that outfit? Click on it! The link above has the 'basic video', no clicking, not-great quality.
I think they hired Twist because he can do special effects like this, none of which come across well in this version.
Broadway "Comic Strip" Dir: Matthieu Mantovani
I'm sure, there's more than one shot ...

One Take Videos - the definitive list
The folks at Alex's mv mailing list helped compile a rather-comprehensive list (after the jump) of all one-take videos ever made, including faux one-takers like the Spice Girls' "Wannabe". Can you think of any others?
A continuously updated list is here.
UPDATE: ftfy.
The White Stripes-The Denial Twist-By Michel Gondry
Nighttime, Anytime - Constantines, directed by Ante Kovac
MGMT - "Boogie Down" (dir. Max Goldblatt)
MGMT, a force born in infancy and cultivated in ass-bruising beats and synth-heavy vaguely threatening pop, mounts a war against the hipsters of Williamsburg. Awesome guitar solo, breakdancing, boogie, blood.
Norah Jones "those sweet words" dir: David Lachapelle
Okay, Norah Jones and David Lachapelle doesn't promise a groundbreaking clip -but give it chance, it's a good one.
Here it is:

Devendra Banhart - Heard Somebody Say
From boardsmag.com: "Simon Henwood directs a curious clip for the equally curious Devendra Banhart."
Devendra Banhart - Heard Somebody Say.mov
Second video and single from the album Cripple Crow. And, yes, that is UK Mercury Music winner Antony cloaked in white in the video.
If I remember correctly, Devendra is soon going into the studio to record with Michael Gira of the Swans and Angels of Light fame. Should be interesting. Keep on the lookout.

Music Video Directors Alliance
We apologize for the bumping up of this post. We feel it is a more than important issue that all antville directors need to take part in.
Who we are not: The DGA The record labels The MVPA
Who we are: We are a group of working music video directors, some of which are also DGA members. You know our names, and you know our work. Our feeling is that there has just been a paradigm shift in the music video business where our work has gone from being a promotional tool to sellable, revenue generating content. We are the creator/writer/directors of these works and our interests need to be represented. The only entity that has the clout and infrastructure to do something like this is the DGA. For instance, they already have an entire department whose sole responsibility it is to audit, collect, and distribute residuals for the tv/feature film director members.
We have had over 250 directors sign thus far. We can assure you, close to all of antville's hero directors are represented . Not only have the A list directors signed but it has crossed over to DGA feature film members signing in support of our cause as well. Here are some of the comments left by directors so far, www.mvdga.org.
A song on itunes is 99 cents. A song with the video is 1.99. That means that video is worth one dollar. The director is the creator, writer, and director of that video. As with every other format be it television, feature films, short films, internet films, etc where the work is being sold for profit, the director needs to be compensated on the back end sale of their intellectual property.
The director is in fact one of the very few people left on a video set that is not represented by their union. The way the business has changed recently, there is really no way we as directors can continue without having a larger entity represent our collective interests.
Please sign our petition at www.mvdga.org. Every signature is important. Thank you.
Sincerely, MVDA
Eurythmics "I've Got a Life" dir. Matthew Rolston
Er, I'll take this time to point to their groundbreaking work in the 1980's, and Annie's Sophie Muller solo vids. They're kinda in Cher mode here.
P.S. This is where Madonna could be..
