Michael Gondry's Signature
• By watching some of Michael Gondry’s
  work I have realised that there is a certain
  pattern in his work and the type of
  conventions that are used within his work,
  these are;
• A repetitive concept
• Usually one long shot, rather than short
  sharp clips.
• Special effects and transitions used.
Chemical Brothers- Let forever be.

• In this music video there are many clear
  examples of Michaels signature in this
  music video eg;
• The whole video is in one big shot without
  any breaks or shot clips.
Technical/ Special Elements

                      Here Gondry has
                      used a mirror
                      effect and this
                      allows the
                      audience to want
                      to keep watching
                      the music video.
Repetition

             Gondry usually uses
             an element of
             symmetry in his
             work, which makes
             him and his work
             recognizable.
