Directors Label is a series of DVDs released by Palm Pictures compiling the work of notable music video directors.

The series' first three volumes, featuring the work of Spike Jonze, Chris Cunningham, and Michel Gondry, were released in 2003. Four new volumes were released in 2005, this time featuring Mark Romanek, Jonathan Glazer, Anton Corbijn and Stéphane Sednaoui.

Though future releases in the series are unlikely, according to series creator Richard Brown,^[1] other directors that were at one point rumoured or planned for releases include Mike Mills, Hammer & Tongs, Shynola, Jean-Baptiste Mondino and Roman Coppola, as well as a planned hip-hop and R&B series featuring Paul Hunter, Director X, and Chris Robinson.^[2]

In 2002, predating the Directors Label series, Palm Pictures released a DVD of Hype Williams' work, titled Hype Williams: The Videos Vol. 1.^[3]

The first installment of the series centered on director Spike Jonze and was released on October 28, 2003.^[4] It includes interviews and audio commentaries from musicians such as Fatboy Slim, Weezer, The Pharcyde, Daft Punk, The Chemical Brothers, Björk, Christopher Walken and Puffy, plus the making of "Drop" with The Pharcyde. It also includes a commentary on a selection of the videos by the Beastie Boys. Enclosed is a book comprising Jonze's photographs, drawings and interviews.

Trailers for "Volume 3: The Work Of Director Michel Gondry" (found on the Volume 1 and Volume 2 DVDs, as well as on Palm Pictures' website) include clips of, as well as references to, Gondry's heavily autobiographical video for Radiohead's "Knives Out." It is unclear why this video was omitted from the final DVD; however, as of June 2008, it is available on the compilation DVD Radiohead: The Best Of, released by EMI after the band had left its contract.

In August 2009, "Knives Out", along with other omissions and more recent works of Gondry's, were released by Partizan Films on a DVD compilation titled Michel Gondry 2: More Videos (Before and After DVD 1).

Diary of photos, storyboards, sketches and comments

Shortly after the release of the first three volumes, Palm Pictures released a box set including all three plus a bonus disc featuring more recent content. Because no additional Cunningham videos were included on the disc, the box set also included a poster with images from the Cunningham disc. Those who purchased the three volumes individually could receive the bonus disc and poster by e-mailing Palm Pictures, but Palm Pictures is no longer able to provide the bonus DVD and Poster.
