Why settle for a single shot video when you can ape that camera style while working in a flurry of tricks. Director John JP Poliquin delivers a faded video for Small Sins in the style of a one-taker, but keeps unleashing various multiple and quick-cut effects that keep you on your toes (so to speak). --> watch "Why Don't You Believe Me"

Canadian alternarock supergroup of sorts Broken Social Scene bring a little organic destruction and creation to a museum in this video directed by Makapoon (aka Adam Makarenko & Alan Poon). Performance is presented as deconstructed and jagged 3-D projections, an effect made possible by a scanning technology that sounds reminiscent of that Radiohead video that was created with frickin lasers. --> watch "Forced To Love"
