Chris Cunningham:
"Pretty much. I'd say it ends up that 60% are shots that are designed to go in one specific place and won't go anywhere else. But the other 40% are accidents or tangents you go off on. That ratio is determined by the limited amount of time you have. I'm not sure I'd change that because you have to be surprised by stuff, else it's no fun."
I like the fact that a very good music video director has quoted this as i love to improvise things on the day and dislike to have acts or live perfomances totally planned out as you know you'll get idea's from looking back at improving what you have just done and idea's on the day when you're at the location. 



This is a shot at 4:10 from the music video 'apthex twin - come to daddy' 
I like this shot in the music video as the old lady is standing up to the monster by screaming back. It's a very weird video!
