The
Work Of Director STÉPHANE SEDNAOUI
Sednaoui's
specific style is one with a wide scope. It includes the annoying personalities
of Alanis
Morissette
in a single vehicle location (Ironic), both the black & white effective
simplicity and glowing neon colours of Björk
(a day and night version of Big Time Sensuality, plus Possibly Maybe),
the grittiness of the Black
Crowes (with
Sofia Coppola starring in Sometimes Salvation), the heavy post-production
& glowing special FX, double exposure dissolves & weird martial arts theme of
Mirwais
(Disco Science, and I Can't Wait), the bright flashy look and visual
distortion of U2
(Discotheque, and Mysterious Ways), a less inspiring clip for French
hip-hoppers NTM
(Le Monde De Demain), the silver glammy Red
Hot Chili Peppers
classic Give It Away (as well as Scar Tissue), and the point of
view angle of Garbage
(Queer). Others include Massive
Attack (Sly),
Youssou N'Dour
& Neneh Cherry
(Seven Seconds), R.E.M.
(Lotus),
and Tricky
(For Real, Hell Is Around The Corner, & Pumpkin). Besides interviews,
you also get short films and animation that'll give you further insight into the
man's art and process.
