Rise Against - Tragedy + Time

After working with Nicole Ehrlich on Lady Gaga's ArtPop Tour we got the chance to work together again. This time my friend Wes Kandel came along to Direct with me. Together we came up with a concept that I think worked out excellently. We set the video in a dark blacked out room to be lit only by projectors. Thanks to the folks at Chaos Visual we were able to blast this mock skyline with enough light to get some interesting visuals. Shot with the archive of toys from Ernesto Lomeli, he's not only the raddest DP, but he's an amazingly nice and helpful person. Without him and everyone else involved this would have never happened.

Directors - Casey Hupke + Wes Kandel
