Two Gallants - Despite What You've Been Told
The Queen with Long Hair
A BW mythical music video for Land of Talk’s “It’s Okay,” directed by WeWereMonkeys. Quite stunning visuals!
Notes about the project from directors:
The idea of the Antiope came from our amazing producer Marcella Moser. Together, the three of us built a story of the last Amazon Queen riding her horse to her doom. We saw her riding through abstract, lonely landscapes, and finally launching from a cliff to disintegrate into nothingness. We saw the piece in super-slow motion, with dramatic lighting and little or no colour. To us, this idea melted perfectly with the sad, slow, feeling of inevitable doom that we got from the music.
