Spike Jonze is an auteur director, this means he often incorporates a personal factor into his works and that his work show consistent similarities between one another. Jonze's personal unique factor is that he often creates films & music videos that have seemingly off-beat story telling.
WEEZER - BUDDY HOLLY
BEASTIE BOYS - SABOTAGE
JAY-Z & KANYE WEST - OTIS
One recurring theme in Spike Jonze's music videos that emphasise the point of him being an auteur director is that they often show nostalgia of popular culture (the recurring TV title sequences etc). Another trend in Jonze's work (and many other auteur directors) is that he often works with the same people.
