00:00Hey, what's your name, where are you from?
00:16I'm like, I'm from France.
00:18What brings you to the BNBAs today?
00:22We have the clip of Electricity, selected in the best song category.
00:33How would you describe the atmosphere here, maybe in three words?
00:36Go ahead, Fred.
00:37Well, I really like this place, I've been here several years before, for a clip of
00:43another project of mine, and there's always a crazy atmosphere, and I really like this
00:48place.
00:49What do music videos mean to you personally, as an artist?
01:00For me, a clip, that is to say that there is a person who is going to transform something
01:07that is only sound, into a visual object, a video graphic, and reinvent a little bit
01:18of what we had thought of as a musician, and reinvent it for the video.
01:24What's your workflow for creating music videos, what's the collaborative process, what does
01:29it look like?
01:30For me, it's a bit special, because I've been a graphic designer for years, so I worked
01:36in the image, I made all my first clips, and the image has always had a lot of importance
01:42for me.
01:43And what was the hardest for me, was to let go of that side of the image, to be able to
01:50create, to get rid of the image that I had of my songs, and to offer them to other people.
02:06What were the biggest challenges for the music video shoot?
02:09I don't know.
02:10He knew that one.
02:11Can you do it in French?
02:12I think that the biggest challenge was to be able to create emotion.
02:13For me, that's the most important thing.
02:14That is to say that today, everyone knows how to make good clips, with beautiful images,
02:15but creating emotions is always more complicated.
