Music video

The music video for "Derezzed" was directed by Warren Fu.[2] It begins as Daft Punk enters Flynn Arcade and approaches the ENCOM game called Derezzed. They insert quarters and start playing, with Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo playing as Prog 1 and Thomas Bangalter as Prog 2. The music starts just as Bangalter presses his "start" button. The Derezzed game plays out as a joust with light cycles in the grid. As an indiscernible program watches the joust in the distance, Prog 2 wins the match. In the arcade, de Homem-Christo is disappointed. Back in the grid, Prog 2 is revealed to be Quorra (Olivia Wilde).
