Typographical Music Video Research

Better Than Prince

Another video by Jonas & François. Rotoscoped so I know where they're coming from thanks to my work in 3rd Year.

Again, not typographical but an interesting way of creating a music video.

Not strictly typography but still pretty cool visualisations directed by French duo Jonas & François.

Kanye West - Good Life ft. T-Pain

The music video for "Good Life" was directed by Jonas & François with animation by So-Me. The video premiered on September 11, 2007 as MTV Jams' "Jam of the Week". It features West and T-Pain performing with animated backdrops and often mouthing the words of the song lyrics, which appear in large letters. The version of the song used in the video contains an additional twenty-three second intro that the album version does not have. The video also features model Angel Melaku. The video has reached #4 so far on VH1's VSpot Top 20 Countdown. It ranked #40 on VH1's "Top 40 Videos of 2007." The video was the recipient of several awards nominations, winning "Best Hip-Hop Video" at the BET Hip Hop Awards and "Best Special Effects in a Video" at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Pato Pooh ft. Adam Tensta - Follow Me

I like the 8bit concept but not really a fan of mixing that style with some polished graphics. Awesome beginning though.

Words in Motion?

Some really nice animations that work with each letter. I like the way the letters are thought of as canvases for the motion graphics to work with.
