Michel Gondry

I’m sick of people not knowing who this guy is, I was doing charades and did ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind’, and no one knew what film I was talking about. Come on people! It’s a brilliant film and stars Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet, but it’s also directed by Michel Gondry, an awesome french dude who also directed ‘The Science of Sleep’.

Michel Gondry is perhaps more well known for being a music video director. Everyone knows the film clip for Daft Punk’s ‘Around the World’, but little people know Gondry was the director. I’ve got 3 videos for you (I know, you’re very lucky).

The first one shows Michel Gondry sketching the idea for the film clip on a chalkboard whilst mumbling some french shit that no one can understand, the second film clip shows the the dancers practising their moves and the last clip is the actual film clip itself. Phew!

He’s a very clever man, you can’t understand what the fuck he’s talking about (it’s actually quite hilarious, he spells drum as “DRUMB”), but it doesn’t matter cause he’s drawing awesome shit all over that chalkboard. Yeah!
