Lighting for entire spot, along with this one and another that was pulled in post. Supervision for lighting of this one.
This project was one of my favorite lighting challenges to date. The dark and edgy feeling, coupled with a willingness (perhaps eagerness even!) to stray from light’s real-world limitations in order to set the mood and tone, allowed for a truly creative collaboration between the director, the art department, the compositor, and myself.

Music Video: “Bloody Bells”
Personal Project, Eastern Conference Champions
Music video “Bloody Bells” by Eastern Conference Champions (ECC)
creative direction & production, sculpt & build, digital enhancement & compositing, photography & video
Listening to ECC’s album Speak-aaah, it was obvious to me that they had to be made into puppets. I had never made marionettes before but that was irrelevant. The project was a lot of fun to make and the band loved it. It became the song’s official video.
fun fact: You might recognize the lead singer, Josh Ostrander. He is now MondoCozmo.
