Music Director

Anthony Mandler 

The music video that inspired me to research into this music video director, Anthony Mandler, was Lana Del Rey's 'National Anthem'. Personally I love the style of this artist video. It shows an old type of textured filming, that looks as though it was filmed in the 70s.

After looking through a variety of Anthony Mandler's work i started to recognise a theme/style that repeated across a majority of his work. All of his work is created like a short film, with amazing Mise-en-Scene and locations as backdrops for the shots.

Mandler has worked with many well known artist, this is a list of some of the artist that he has directed videos for: 

• Rihanna "Unfaithful" in 2006, most recently "Only Girl (In the World)", "California King Bed","Man Down", "Diamonds" 
• Jay-Z
• Drake
• The Killers
• Lana Del Rey
• Mary J. Blige 
• Amongst many other artist.

Anthony has also ventured out into doing commercials and has worked with international clients such as Motorola, Samsung, Nike and Ciroc.
