Michel Gondry.
Age: 56
From France.
-Noted for his inventive style and distinctive manipulation of mine en scene.
-He won an award in 2004 for the film Eternal sunshine of a spotless mind.
He directed the Chemical Brothers' let forever be in 2009 and the White Stripes' hardest button to button which both involve repeating images. In let forever be he has used seamless transitions and image manipulation to create confusion for the audience.
He has also pioneered the "bullet time"technique which was later adapted in the film the Matrix.
He also plays with frames of reference and in the Chemical Brothers' star guitar video he used one continuous shot.
In the film Eternal sunshine of a spotless mind, his techniques are shown in a dream sequence scene as he plays with the size of the characters and demonstrates his smooth transitions and image manipulation.
