GAMEHOTEL MUSIC VIDEO SHOWREEL

The GAMEHOTEL MUSIC VIDEO SHOWREEL highlights the enriching cross-pollination between video games, animation, and motion graphics. Gondry, H5, Cunningham, Glazer, Jonze - these directors demonstrate how much popular culture can both reach a mass audience, and explore the cutting edge of new grounds.

Recently featured directors include up and coming Franco-British director Arno Salters. His beautiful Facing the Void clip for General Elektriks (Compost Recordings) combines breath-taking stop-motion animation and kung fu marionettes. More cutting edge puppetry was also shown during GAMEHOTEL FUTURE MOVES, courtesy of the beautiful Duo 505 (Morr Music) clip, directed by promising young Italian director Lorenzo Fonda.

Shown for the first time in the US during GAMEHOTEL's Season Two Music Video Showreel: MTV Award-winning trio H5 (De Crécy/Houplain/Alaux). Their productions included the brilliant "Oualalaradime" based on a mock video game, something of a cross between soccer and beat ‘em up-type games; the twisted CG homage to a roster of dance icons (from Prince and James Brown to Michael Jackson and Jamiroquai); their kinetic trip through a city of New York composed entirely of words (Alex Gopher's "The Child"); as well as videos for groups such as Massive Attack, Goldfrapp, or Royksopp.
