Reinterpreting an idea to surpass its previous source takes some skill.
Anyway, Bey came up with most of the video treatments for her visual album.
Quote:
The directors also didn’t know the order of the album, and were therefore not fully aware of the concepts of the videos that preceded or followed theirs, Saiz said.
“[We had] no idea. No idea,” Saiz said with a laugh. “The last word of [‘Yoncé’] is a paparazzi saying, ‘Welcome to Paris,’ and I knew they were going to Paris shortly after, so I assumed that was [where they would be filming].” Indeed, the video for “Partition,” which follows “Yoncé,” was filmed at the famed Parisian cabaret club Crazy Horse.
So while Saiz knew the next video would be set in the City of Love, he said, “As far as the actual cohesive narrative, from video to video, I don’t think anyone had any idea.”

I mean. You have to be very well put together creatively to get this off as cohesively as she did it.
