The Making of Kanye West's Power Music Video

Offered is a behind-the-scenes look into the making of Kanye West’s music video for the single Power, directed by Marco Brambilla. Consistently pushing the boundaries of music, art, and design alike, this video once again proves why Mr. West has had so much staying power in such a cutthroat industry.”Power shows a continuous camera move from extreme close-up of Mr. West revealing an a neoclassical video tableau showing characters and creatures surrounding him in an abstract environment – all moving in extreme slow motion. Inspired by Michelangelo’s frescos in the Sistine Chapel, the piece depicts a faux historical moment – an empire on the brink of collapse from its own excess, decadence and corruption.” This trailer was produced by The 88.
