Week 11: Daft Punk

This is going to be the last post of online discoveries and findings. I was thinking of things I could do for this week's post when I came upon reflecting all the themes we covered in this year's digital media class. We covered design principles, animation, motion, and most interestingly (at least to me) the evolution of the music videos. I set out to find a music video that combines multiple core elements that we covered in class.

One such video is Daft Punk's "Around The World:"

The video successfully combines the contrast and shapes of different colours to deliver it's message. The motion (though not digital) is executed in excellent synchronization with the music. I also find this video, though unvoncentional, works well in delivering the universal message of global culture.
