after JUSTICE, KANYE WEST, MADONNA ... FLAIRS !

Apr 27, 2008


早些時候有提過Flairs的單曲Better Than Prince找來了曾替Justice(D.A.N.C.E.)Kayne Wast(Good Life)以及Madonna(4 Minutes)...等執導Video的Jonas & Francois來製作,不久前收到通知說已經完成。

Flairs met Jonas & Francois a few weeks before their carreer boomed heavily....
Both listened to "Better than Prince" and declared: "We shall create an old fashioned
12 images per sec. psychedelical cartoon, black and white...All we need is a cheap camera, one
computer, one scanner, 3000 A4 paper sheets and 7 black ink pencils.".

They did the film for the video and a few days after, the storm started: Justice "D.A.N.C.E",
Kanye West "Good Life" and Madonna "4 minutes" were their next missions....
Flairs was quite anxious somedays: "Gosh how're they going to find the time to do these drawings ?"
But things went on, the team (they also hired additionnal illustrators incl. Flairs' girlfriend) kept on filling pages...
J & F could be in Tokyo or L.A, they always brought some "Flairs homework" for their spare time in hotel rooms....

Now here it is, a totally handmade vintage like cartoon designed to perfectly fit in Flairs' cynical electronica piece of
music...He loves its groove and black & white simplicity, just like the song, really.
