Who was the original director

  • What year was the original music video produced? December 03, 2015

  • Who was your music video’s original Director? Mood Melodies also known as Anders Froen

  • Do they have a particular genre or style? Describe it. Mood Melodies has a particular style, in all of his videos he has something similar being produced. There is a lot of editing and cuts in the videos. In all of his videos produced they all start with a slow tempo and end with a high tempo. Also in some parts of the music video you hear bangs in the music while the artist is singing or while there is only background music. In a couple of songs you hear a little bit of DJ mixes being used.  Another similarity amongst all of the videos is the slow singing from all of the artists. Overall, Mood Melodies likes producing music videos with slow beats that eventually lead up to fast ones.
