Hey everyone! Check out the brand new Scissor Sisters video for their third single, "She's My Man." This track is definitely one of our favorite highlights from their sophomore album, Ta-Dah. If you're looking for more pop culture gems, be sure to explore our music video collections for more inspiration. We hope you caught the band on Passions recently; even if you're not usually a fan of the show, seeing them appear was a real treat! Rock and blog onβ€”we’ll be back with more updates soon.

The Creative Genius of Nagi Noda

Scissor Sisters are proud to present this innovative video, directed by the talented Japanese artist Nagi Noda. The production uses a groundbreaking technique known as "Kuroko," which is a fascinating style of Japanese puppetry. In this style, stagehands are dressed entirely in black, manipulating both props and characters to create the seamless illusion that camera angles and perspectives are shifting. This unique approach makes the "She's My Man" Scissor Sisters collaboration a visual feast.

Technical Magic: A One-Take Wonder

Despite what you think you’re seeing, we assure you that this video was filmed all in one take. There was no editing, no camera movement, and no slow-motion or special effects used to achieve these transitions. However, truth be told, there is actually one special effect hidden in the footageβ€”see if you can spot it! For more behind-the-scenes looks at your favorite artists, check out our entertainment news section.

Why This Video Stands Out

  • Filmed entirely in a single continuous take with no cuts.
  • Features the traditional Japanese Kuroko technique for practical effects.
  • Zero digital camera movement or post-production editing.
  • Showcases intricate stagecraft and flawless choreography.

Ana Matronic Channels a Pirate Legend

So enjoy the fruits of our labor in full "Scissorvision," as the talented Ana Matronic channels the spirit of New Orleans riverboat pirate Annie Christmas. She brings a fierce energy to the screen, slicing and dicing her male counterparts in this visually striking production. It's a bold performance that perfectly complements the track's infectious rhythm and the high-concept direction. You can find more about the band's history on their official Wikipedia page.
