One shot (music video)


A "one-shot" is any music video which consists of action, continuous in time and space, from the perspective of a single camera — a single long take. In order to be able to make one-shot videos several special techniques are used. Most commonly the stage props which are not currently caught on cameras are changed during the shot. For other videos some parts are filmed before the final shot and then replayed on screens in the video.

One of the most famous music video directors for this genre is Michel Gondry, who has done many of his videos in this style.

This differs from the meaning of two shot, etc.
