The "Derezzed" Music Video

The music video for "Derezzed" was directed by Warren Fu. It starts with Daft Punk entering an old arcade. They walk up to a game called Derezzed. They put in coins and start playing!

Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo plays as "Prog 1" and Thomas Bangalter plays as "Prog 2." The music begins as Thomas presses his start button. The Derezzed game is like a jousting match, but with cool light cycles on a digital grid. Another character watches the game from far away. Prog 2 wins the match! Back in the arcade, Guy-Manuel looks a bit sad that he lost. In the game, Prog 2 is revealed to be Quorra, a character from the movie played by Olivia Wilde.
