Kelly Rowland 'Dumb' by Frank Gatson Jr.
Luke Bather - 24th Apr 2017
A dance routine takes centre stage in Frank Gatson Jr.'s video for Kelly Rowland.
Soaked in a golden light, Rowland and co-star Trevor Jackson run through a dress rehearsal for their big theatrical number (thus explaining the matching shirt, suspenders, bowler hat combo). The choreography is the true star of the show here, with Frank Gatson Jr. earning his stripes as the choreographer for Beyoncé (once a bandmate of Rowland's, lest we forget) for a number of classic videos.
Although Gatson didn't choreograph this video, he's visually drawn to showing off the work of others in that field, and so this video is packed full of wide-shots to help an audience take in the routine as if they were sitting in the empty auditorium.
