 Sednaoui operated the camera for the whole shoot . To capture the victim 's struggle , Sednaoui positioned the camera at ground @-@ level facing upwards towards Garbage , who were standing on a rotating platform . To suggest the victim was almost hallucinating , strobe lighting was combined with the rotation of the platform , however the effect caused the band to suffer from vertigo after a number of takes . Manson later claimed that the video helped establish her group ; " He really defined for us who we were visually . Stéphane was able to look at the band and listen to the music and figure out what was the perfect visual partner for the band . People think we 're a very stylish band , and it 's all to do with him " . She added , " I 'm really proud of " Queer " , I think it 's one of our best videos . "
