Directors Label Series DVDs

[MyCamerasOn]

Anyone else read about these at some point? I just realized that they released a second installment with Mark Romanek and Anton Corbijn, two guys that are probably the greatest music video directors from the past 20 years.

If anything, listening to each director's commentary during the pieces is worth it...although I think Romanek is capable of making a much better film than One Hour Photo. A good portion of his videos are genius.

I'm going to try to grab a copy of the Sednaoui one from Universal, too, since I've heard these supposed to be a couple of unreleased shorts on there, too. The Lou Reed themed one sounds especially interesting.

The first collection featuring Spike, Cunningham, and Gondry was good, and recently helped to promote and attended a screening for Rubber Johnny here in H-town. I've been interested in this new collection as well; just haven't found the time to put it in my pocket yet...

Not sure what you're into musically, but if we're referring to pure content, the Romanek and Corbijn ones are loaded. The commentary on the Romanek disc is probably the most thorough -- I've heard that the guy is really demanding to work with, but he seems pretty laid back.
