THANK YOU
Name: Thank You Client: Swingzy My Role: Everything but the music
Another laid-back music video, part follow-up to an earlier music video (LIFE) we shot together.
This time, we had almost nothing going for us: no tripod head, freezing attic, one cast member down with a nasty cold. What was supposed to be a clean shoot turned into an improvised, handheld scramble.
And yet… it worked. The footage swung with a relaxed, awkward charm.
Something between Kings of Convenience and lo-fi noir.
Post & Production Details
The window in the scene took the most time: I built the full 3D window setup from scratch, complete with a moving cityscape behind it to match the handheld camera drift.
The real pain wasn’t the design, it was tracking.
I manually tracked the shot in After Effects and painstakingly rotoscoped parts of the footage to get it to sit right. Easily the most labor-intensive part of the piece.
