The theory holds that the director, who oversees all audio and visual elements of the motion picture, is more to be considered the “author” of the movie than is the writer of the screenplay. In other words, visual elements as camera placement, blocking, lighting, and scene length convey the message of the film.
The music video director that i have chosen is Colin Tilley , an award winning director for Riveting Entertainment. Colin Tilley is an international music video director born on June 27th 1988 in Berkely, Californina. He has directed videos for Diddy, Chris Brown, Keri Hilson, Justin Bieber, Bow Wow, Ciara, Usher, and many more. Some of his landmark videos include, Chris Brown ft Justin Bieber- 'Next To You' ,Chris Brown-'Yeah 3x' and Jason Derulo- 'It Girl'.
Colin Tilley has won several awards including video of the year at the 2011 BET Awards for Chris Brown's "Look at Me Now" video and Best Male video at MTV's 2011 VMAs for Justin Bieber "You Smile".

Tilley seems to the same visual style throughout all of the videos that he has directed, dark rooms, basements and dim lighting. The videos usually include lots of street dancers and girls which boast fantastic lighting pieces, and sleek editing. Colin Tilley emphasises the narrative within the lyrics of the song he is directing the video fo. For example , Next To You by chris brown and Justin Bieber. The video shows that the world is ending and they are both looking for their girlfriends, making sure their next to them when its over and showing their protection just like the lyrics of the song.
Colin Tilley particularly inspires me because he is only 23 years old, and has already directed over fifty music videos. He has a great amount of talent and uses his own originality in all of his videos.
