The last two Grammy nominees for best music video are Coldplay and the Black Eyed Peas. It’s interesting to see their two videos’ very different approach to technology. “Life in Technicolor II” utilizes the traditional art of the puppet show. Meanwhile, “Boom Boom Pow” makes use of all sorts of never-before-seen digital effects, though it all combines into a video that seems, in my opinion, sort of disjointed. Do these major names have what it takes to beat Depeche Mode and the two brand new nominees? Only time will tell.
