Nigel Dick is an English music video director mostly known for directing the extremely successful music videos, Oasis - “Wonderwall;” Britney Spears - “...Baby One More Time;” Guns N' Roses - “Welcome to the Jungle”.
The music video 'Wonderwall' particularly appeals to me due to the simplified yet effective performance based video created effectively due to the use of clever editing.
The black and white style is an influence as me and my group want to convey this style in our own work, Nigel Dick also used a colour contrast in this particular video, highlighting the acoustic guitar. Giving the impression Nigel Dick wanted to illustrate the importance of the acoustic guitar and symbolising the iconic and famous rift played in the song "Wonderwall".
Being one of Oasis' first huge and successful songs the music video needed to portray the bands brand and style, Nigel Dick doing so by capturing the emotionless yet new and unique performance and sound of Oasis.
The black and white style can be inferred the Oasis brand but can also symbolise their personalities being simple and nothing extravagant.
