Unklejam Walk Down A Hallway And Wind Up In One Of The Year’s Most Neon-Bright Videos
If there’s one music video technique that I’m a total sucker for, it’s the one where the whole thing looks like it was recorded in one fell swoop of the camera (and sometimes was). Unklejam’s video for the booty-shaking “Love Ya” almost looks like a one-shot, but it actually has three cuts in it, as director Paul Gore tells Paper Thin Walls in an interview about the clip. Either way, its simple walking-down-the-hallway-where-crazy-shit*-happens construct results in four minutes that are compulsively watchable; if things don’t work out for David Lee Roth as far as the Van Halen tour go, he might do well to hook up with Gore for his next solo video.
