Michel Gondry is the master of the Playful and Imaginative Music Video. But since the French director left the realm of videos for features, there's been a huge hole. Only one man has made a serious attempt to fill that vaccum. His name is Dougal Wilson and he's already done amazing clips for Goldfrapp, Bat for Lashes, Basement Jaxx, and Jarvis ...
