We get a behind the scenes look at the production of the upcoming music video by Kanye West for “Power”. The artist himself already declared the new video as a piece of art, rather than a music video. The video was produced by The 88 and directed by Marco Brambilla.
“POWER shows a continuous camera move from extreme close-up of Mr. West revealing an a neoclassical video tableau showing characters and creatures surrounding him in an abstract environment – all moving in extreme slow motion.
Inspired by Michelangelo’s frescos in the Sistine Chapel, the piece depicts a faux historical moment – an empire on the brink of collapse from its own excess, decadence and corruption.”
Enjoy!
