Besides working as a Bond main title designer, Kleinman is a acclaimed commercial and music video director. He has directed more than 100 videos for artists such as ZZ Top, Culture Club, The Simple Minds, Fleetwood Mac, Prince and Madonna, to name a few.

He also directed the Bond-inspired music video for Gladys Knight’s title song to «Licence to Kill» (1989), which impressed the Bond producers.

He took over the job as regular Bond title designer from veteran designer Maurice Binder, who passed away in 1991.
