Ayu: Only Asian with world's most expensive PVs

[Surreal]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...e_music_videos

She's on there three times for JEWEL, fairyland, and My Name's Women.

Insane.

[..:Hot:Like:Wow:..]

She seems to be the only asian worth it. Well she deserves it the most, over any other singer in asia.

What made those PVs so expensive to make?

[criminal]

Yeah, but that's Wikipedia, you cannot rely on information posted on Wikipedia, it could be totally false. Although Ayumi sometimes does have quite expensive PVs.

[alternarist]

but wikipedia also has reliable information.. i think its up to us whether the information on wiki is trustworthy or not.. its easy to judge

anyway, i wonder why JEWEL PV is expensive.. u mean all the jewels are real???

i'm sure the jewels ayu's holding is 100% real(and bloodly expensive), then there's all the CG for the flowers, trees.......CG cost a lot of money and that's a lot of stuff.

^ I guess if I'm ayu..I will want them to be real? For visual effects..she's a perfectionist after all. the making itself looked cheap to me.

Some artists/record companies don't even announce how much their PVs cost. For all we know, there might be some other PVs that have been more expensive, but just unannounced to the public.

i think the main pt of this thread is that SHE MADE IT!..so i dont care whose the rest of the unannounced...

i love all the PVs anyway..heh

Well my main point is that the list isn't accurate because not every single PV mentions its' cost or maybe we just haven't heard news about it (ie: other Asian PVs like from India etc.)

[ayu1m]

Ayu is such a spender

[Chibi_Venus]

I was telling my friend about this and now she wants to see the three PVs. I let her listen to fairyland and my name's WOMEN (I don't have JEWEL) last night at the movie theaters. She liked my name's WOMEN.

But did you guys see who's number one? $7,000,000 to make Scream?? Holy biscuts!

[elepop]

What the hell made "my name's WOMEN" that expensive? *____*

[truehappiness]

I think they spent a lot on the set..

And costumes for all the extras~

[Syphex]

Yeah, instead of just renting out a nightclub they probably MADE the entire thing.

[Findlay]

Those three PVs do have the expensive "looks", well to me anyways. D:

[truehappiness]

You must remember:
Wataru Takeishi directed each and every one of them. LOL

[HiruNoKaze]

lol I watched a bunch of Michael Jackson videos on youtube cause of this thread...I guess the Scream MV cost a lot cause 3d animation was cutting-edge back then? maybe...

They did, you can tell that watching the making of.

If I can remember exactly, it was the set and lighting that made it expensive, plus makeup for both Janet and Michael. I've read an article about those most expensive videos (the one by TLC was actually made expensive becouse they changed the concept for the video many times, and Will Smith's video was expensive becouse it used loads of morphing transitions which apparently cost a lot).

[extepan]

wow. i just dont understand how FAIRYLAND could have costed that much. i cant see anything that's vrey very expensive
