Matthias was still the dp it seems. It's featured on his site.
I've AC'ed for him a few time. Very fantastic DP.

 

[Gavin Greenwalt]

That looks like a fantastic use of a motion control rig. I like this guy's simple but engaging concepts.

 

[J Davis]

The old KISS (keep it simple, stupid!) methodology really worked for this one.

I would love to know if the DP came up with the idea, or the director, or both?

 

[Matt Garrett]

It seems like with the idea being used SOOOO much in the video it would have to be in the pitch, right?

Definitely. All the choreography of moving dancers into shots and back out again, moving any lights, making sure both cams never shot each other, the bit where both cams align ... that a lot of planning.

Very impressive! Song ain't too bad either...

Immpresive planning...but don't think the effort paid off in the finished
product. Wardrobe and set design doesn't seem to fit together and
flat lighting. Song :nopity:kinda makes my :bigear: hurt.

For a simple idea synth pop video reminds me of Kylie Minogue's Come Into My World.
Plus this :violin:sounds dreamy to my :bigear:...
