Philippe Manoeuvre and Jean-Pierre Dionnet: the production of music videos in France and the United States

The presenters of the program "Les Enfants du rock", Philippe MANOEUVRE and Jean-Pierre DIONNET give their opinion on the American music channel MTV which broadcasts clips almost continuously. According to them it is a kind of supermarket of music videos and the dream for music lovers. They talk about the production of French music videos which is insufficient, because according to them record companies do not think to make music videos to sell records as in the United States. They like some French clips like those of Philippe KROOTCHEY Richard GOTAINER or TELEPHONE. According to them it is not a question of money or creativity on the part of the directors but the problem of record companies that are lagging behind.
