Playing for friends on 5th Street (2004) a film by Derek Bailey;

This film was fairly long, around 50 minutes, so I only watched the first 10 minutes or so. My guess is this is as close to a music video any film artist will attempt to achieve?? I was pleased the artist gave a sense of who his friends are in the first couple minutes of the film. This allowed me to understand the pleasure his music brought upon those in his presence. I find the film artist's technique for how to convey this music successful. The choice the film artist made to have cuts with different lighting helped make this successful. The music was enjoyable to listen to and easy to see that the musician clearly has a passion for what he does.
