The clip prominently features (besides a lot of colours and pantomime) the (artistic) use of a focal depth of field. I didn&#8217;t have to look too long to find the director&#8217;s name: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0802248\/\">Tarsem Singh<\/a>. Apparently, he also directed R.E.M.&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M7vs21ZKrKM\">&#8220;Losing my religion&#8221;<\/a>, which features similar used techniques as the one made for the Dream Warriors. Like it or not, both video clips are amazing and compelling works.\n<\/p>\n<p>I also found out that Tarsem Singh is the man behind the movie <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0460791\/\">&#8220;The Fall&#8221; (2006)<\/a>, a movie which <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/video\/trailer\/me709440261\/\">video trailer<\/a> was just recently released and (I believe) the movie will probably be showing in a theatre near you really soon now. As expected, &#8220;The Fall&#8221; has all those features that made the previously mentioned videoclips stand out.
