And they got big-name directors, just to show the world that they're that good: Hype Williams was behind the camera for the above clip, which swaps Williams' normal fisheyed worldview for Photoshop's "cracking paint" filter; Anton Corbijn took charge for the clip after the jump, which references a video that will probably be familiar to [...]
