The Five most prominent (and recent) inspirations for my work:
Alphonse Mucha
Elegant characters and backgrounds, basic colors turned into a sophisticated visual.
Henry Darger
A "closet" artist, who created from his own mind and for no one but himself. He often portrayed figures of innocence fighting against figures of darkness.
Katy Perry
Attention paid to the movement of Katy as an alien and the use of deep saturated colors
Skrillex
The song and use of visuals to convey a story, although the vocals and visuals are irrelevant to each other. The artist used tempo and feel of the song to accentuate the video
Beyonce
Power given to the main (and only) character, the flow of things overlapping each other and again, deep saturated colors
