Les Petites Bourrettes - Pour me Rendre a mon Bureau
This is the music video for Pour me Rendre a mon Bureau by Les Petites Bourrettes.
Les Petites Bourrettes are a quirky quintet from Paris. Despite having played at some very famous venues and festivals, they spend most of their time performing in the streets for money, using makeshift instruments (such as a dustbin connected to a long piece of wood and one string instead of a bass guitar).
Although they have an extremely close, devoted fanbase, they haven't really achieved any widespread success, which is why I think this video is so successful. Despite being produced on a limited budget (like us), it is still very clever and effective.
The video provides an excellent example of the multi-boxed split-screen effect that we hope to include in our video, with people and objects interchanging between the barriers and moving into separate scenes.

Great Video! Do you know what the song means?
ReplyDeleteYes it is about the rush to and from work and everything and everyone he encounters along the way (pour me rendre a mon bureau literally translates as 'on my way to the office'). I have met the band on a few occasions and they have mentioned the fact that they do not make a living simply off of their music, and all hold down jobs in Paris, which is where the song comes from.
