Primary Video

Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal (official video)

Michael begins filming a second video for his upcoming album, with Colin Chilvers directing what would become “Smooth Criminal”.

The shoot points to how visual the Bad campaign was from the beginning. Even before the album was released, Michael was building a connected video world that would later feed into Moonwalker.

This event should eventually include shoot dates, locations, cast/crew details and links to the finished music-video page.
