Creature of the Suite
December 14, 2017
And here’s a level of stupid I’d be comfortably happy to produce in my video making career, if I ever get one. Directed by James Chappell and Dan Mac in 2014, it contains quirky humour, a kaleidoscope of colour (and kaleidoscopes), subtle drama, amateur theatre, dodgy costumes, some pissweak choreography, mind-altering effects, stark contrasts of lighting, a bit of throwback to some early Dawn Shadforth videos, a touch of Deee-lite, a blend of good and evil and a sleigh-load of smiley faces which suggests it would’ve been a helluva lot of FUN. It’s certainly fun to watch. Because music (or music videos, films in general and even university) don’t always have to be so damn serious.
