Book Reviews of Reinventing Music Video: Next-generation directors, their inspiration and work
Book Review: Useful insights into modern concepts
Summary: 4 Stars
The book deals with some fairly standard shooting techniques and equipment uses. Creativity being the main focal point is inspiring and compelling. At first I thought there was too much emphasis on computer graphics, as this is out of reach to most budget conscious filmmakers, but the author is graphics oriented. The links to the vids shot by the directors were very useful and only dated a couple of years, but were great examples of what's currently some of the top directors' visions. This made up for the bulk of animated video reviews which for the most part were excellent. The book is a fine insight into the minds of some of the finest young directors today.

This is a unique title; no current showcase of the best contemporary music videos exists, despite the area being a popular, flourishing hub of creative activity. If you want to succeed in this area, you need this book!Reinventing Music Videos provides a showcase of the best of the next generation of international music video directors, who are creating work for best-selling and cutting-edge music artists.

Stunning visuals dominate the book, along with questions and answers with the creators, and their sketches, treatments, and test visuals.
