Die Another Day (Her most expensive video)


Recommended Posts

Sorry but to me this screams big budget, considering time and labour are always the most costly factors; first of all it's a multiple day shoot (according to the making of adding up to 7 days because of re-shoots) with a huge crew. Most M video's are done in 1 or 2 days. Second, all the sets are real (and big!) and are only digitally enhanced/expanded, greenscreens are used for a reason and it's called budget restriction ;-) Building sets is incredibly costly, that's basicly the only reason why EY was so expensive. Not that it's really gonna put a dent in the budget but the recreating of all the props probably had the same budget as any video done in the early 80's. Then there are the special effects, even though they aren't as apparent as in let's say Scream, there's special effects in almost every scene: all the smoke, the hebrew lettering, M's inflicting wounds, the breaking glass (combo of sugar glass and CGI) etc. the most clear SE is the reflection of the dual in the broken mirror, it's incredibly well done and is featured for about a second lol. So, yeah I'd say this is one of the most expensive looking video's there are, is it any good? meh, it's ok ;-)
