The Making of The Creatures of Simplicity Video

I’m a bit excited. With my interest in film-making rekindled, I’m working with the fantastic illustrator Louise Wright on the video to the first single from my latest album The Broken Family DaySaver.

The Creatures of Simplicity tells the story of a mis-demeanor in a wooded area…

I think there are enough videos of bands larking about on stage, up trees, in subways and in industrial estates to last a nuclear half-life-time at least, so we’re attempting to come up with a video style and a way of shooting that hasn’t been done before.

With my lack of tact apparent in recent pricing experiments, I’d be a fool to make a claim that couldn’t be substantiated. You’ll have to wait about three weeks to see the previews of the video to prove me wrong and enlighten me on a similar music video, so in the meantime, here are some storyboard images. To listen to the song take a stroll here. Happy sunshine!

My home on the hill...

...a stroll into the woods...

...whoooooooo is that in the trees?..
