6 Foot 7 Foot - Lil Wayne (Directed by Hype Williams)
Hype Williams, is a big influence of mine when it came to making the music video, he is an innovative hip-hop video director, and is somewhat of innovator within his field. He has been producing since 1991 and his signature style is described as combining 'a center camera focus on the artist or actor's body from the torso upward and a solid color background with a soft different-color light being shown in the center of the background', so as to give a sense of illumination of the background by the foreground subject. The above 2 videos, are arguably the two videos of 2011, and the year isn't even out yet.
Obviously I don't have the budget of Hype, but would draw an inspiration for my ideas from what he does.
