The video for “Innuendo” combines stop-motion animation, live-action footage and digital image treatments within a miniature cinema setting. Queen appear chiefly through illustrated portraits and material from earlier videos, including “The Miracle”, “Scandal”, “Breakthru”, “The Invisible Man” and “I Want It All”, as well as footage from “Live at Wembley Stadium 1986”. The portraits evoke different visual traditions: Leonardo da Vinci for Mercury, Victorian etching for May, Jackson Pollock for Taylor and Pablo Picasso for Deacon. Historical images are also incorporated. Production company DoRo received a Monitor Award for its work on the video.

This page presents high-resolution reproductions of original 35 mm slides associated with the “Innuendo” video.
