In my role as press agent for RPS, I’ve had the opportunity to research Damion’s past work in the music video field. You can read his full bio here, and follow the links to see his latest artistry on his archive site at RockPaperScissors.com.

Damion kindly shared these thoughts for this story: “Music videos truly are an amazing artistic form which since their advent have continued to evolve. I remember as a kid watching London’s Calling and thinking, ‘Wow, that is f#$# Mick Jones and Joe Strummer playing on a barge. Why are they are on a barge?’ Personally, I was 10 when MTV began hitting me over the head with images, and I have loved the art of the music video story. Now that I am an editor, music videos are still as fascinating, while offering a unique opportunity for director/editor collaboration. Today, the process is often void of payment, and therefore, even more a labor of love — and hopefully, experimentation.”

The YouTube playlist above features many of the music videos that Damion edited over the years between 2001 and 2009, and below I’m also embedding another of his favorites, from directors Traktor for Partizan, for “The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song” from The Flaming Lips. With many thanks to the Music Video Database, below that last video you’ll find the list of the best music television I was able to find cut by Damion, in reverse chronological order. Although I love many of them, I have to say, my favorite is his latest: “Axe Anthem Uncut.”
