Directors Inspiration - Ben Winston

I am doing some research into directors of music video's that I have found interesting or have ideas that I would like to develop into my own ancillary piece. By doing this I am hoping to find correlations between directors and the types of music video's that they create. 

Ben Winston is an English director who has created many films and music videos. He is best know for his work creating One Directions music videos. 

His music videos have won multiple awards.
  • He won two awards at the 4Music Video Honours for his work on 'Best Song Ever' (2013) and 'Midnight Memories' (2014).
  • At the Brit awards in 2014, another award was won from Winston's work on 'Best Song Ever'. 
  • 'You & I' won an award for British Artists Video of the year at the Brits in 2015.
  • 'Story of My Life' won Best International Video at Los Premios 40 Principales Espana in 2014.
There have been many more wins for his work at less well known and international awards. 

These are some of the most successful videos Ben Winston directed for One Direction: 

'Story of My Life' by One Direction. This music video has nearly 496 million views on YouTube.

 'Best Song Ever' by One Direction. This music video has nearly 459 million views on YouTube.
