Jonas & François

Jonas & François is a French directing team of music videos and commercials. They have collaborated with a range of artists such as Depeche Mode, Kanye West, Iggy Azalea, Muse, Madonna and most recently Jack White

Jonas and François have achieved a number of prestigious nominations and awards for their work

Since 2006, the director duo have widely showcased a unique and quirky style for the contemporary music video, frequently involving artistic concepts and impressive graphics

Flairs, “Better Than Prince” Kavinsky, “Testarossa Autodrive” Justice, “D.A.N.C.E.”

Kanye West, “The Good Life” Labyrinth, “Express Yourself” Electric Guest, “The Bait”

While Jonas & François are not as recognised and acclaimed as the likes of Spike Jonze, there’s no doubt that their inspired body of work is admirable, and will, if it has not already done so, have a significant influence on music video production

The video for Jack White’s “Lazaretto” is one of my favourites from the pair, and it’s great use of minimalism and artistic concept will surely have an influence upon the music video I create with my group
