This is the second video I directed for Dublin band Sickboy. There are a few ideas behind this video;
two of the band members, Colm and Brian are identical twin brothers - like carbon copies of each other, which got me interested in the idea of copying and reproduction of images. I was also interested in the aesthetic of the fliers and self promotional material being produced by unsigned bands, often black and white photocopies showing a picture of the band and a date etc. Also the idea of animating 'silent' photocopies (of a face smushed up against the glass of a photocopier) to make it appear as though the photocopies are singing appealed to me. So I copied colm's face in a photocopier and moved it around as the light from the copier passed by to create distortions - we made hundreds of photocopies with all the main mouth/facial shapes needed for lip sync. Then I shot them playing on whitescreen, photocopied the frames etc - put the mouth shapes in order, photographed them, composited it all together in ae and synced it up.
Hope you enjoy!

This video was an experiment in digitally aliasing a live performance. Based on the visual language that Tim had created, the video was made using both in camera and analog techniques to physically destroy a linear performance. Then together Vince and Tim created a edit that pieced linear time and footage back together in a logical sequence. The end product is a visually stunning fragmented performance by Assassins.

A frantic music video created out of 6000 stills.
Created when it became apparent that no one in the band could sing keep in time or had any talent!.
Shot in one weekend using a canon 1dsmk2
constructed using premiere 6.5 and after effects 6.5

The Abstract journey of a green sphere-shape creature through the sound reactive environment. It is an visual experiment on the under(table) perspective and the beat reactive objects. It reminds us of the old school 8-bit shooting game.

All of the footage were shot through the custom-made translucent table, with the 3CCD DV camera and digital still camera (panasonic Lumix LX3). All the animation were done in adobe aftereffect.

Enjoy!
