Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
This song launched the animated band. The video helped with its anime roots. Both were very new and different. So is the Gorillaz web site.
Directed by comic book artist Jamie Hewlett and animator Pete Candeland in 2001. Hewlett was co-creator of the virtual band Gorillaz and the comic strip Tank Girl and co-creator of the band directing all their videos. In 2006 Hewlett’s artwork for Gorillaz was nominated for the Design Museum’s ‘Designer of the Year’ award and Hewlett was named the Designer of the Year.
