Very nice. What camera did you use?
You Me and Iowa 1 year ago

It was shot on a Panavision 35mm film camera.

Very well put together with an excellent understanding of photography & light - must have been costly using 35mm film though as a good HD cam such as the Sony EX1 or EX3 would have given just as good a result, in fact better HD overall, unless the big screen was in mind for this production?

this needs to be added now, because this is awesome.

Freaking awesome! And that's all I'm going to say. If I say any more I will ramble on and on, and it won't make any sense.

What was the reason for having the back drop in two sheets? Was there a purpose for the line it created?

Love it. Sent it to both my friends!!

absolutely fantastic. I'm still confounded as to how you had so many people going in different directions! I can only imagine how many takes it took to get this right!

How did you do the trick then?
Anthony Meadows 1 year ago

You're not supposed to ask a magician how they did their trick...but...seeing as Matthew isn't a magician...HOW DID YOU DO THAT?

smoke and mirrors

Heh, I prefer doing it digitally then... It must be very puzzling

wow. i really dig the music. well mixed and mastered. and this video was just great. did you have people on small rolling platforms pulled around or what? very clever and original stuff. good job guys.

Panavision FTW!

That is some nice 7/8 time.

Here is my guess as to how it is made: no conveyor belt, but rather the backdrop and the camera are moved together in a larger room, similar to the "Virtual Insanity" music video.

In any case, good job.

We'll post a behind the scenes featurette soon to answer all of your questions!

You Me and Iowa 1 year ago

hey thanks so much man! let us know when the album gets there!
Mark Ahrens 1 year ago

Really nice! Normally i bail out once i get the taste of the clip . . . i watched the whole slip this time due to the infectious groove and the confounding effect. Looking forward to the featurette.

it is my professional opinion that Matthew doesn't like editing.

I really enjoyed both the song and the video. Good to hear some fun music in something other than 4/4.

Nice, good work.
Lisa Hofflich 1 year ago

Awesome video and song! I loved them both. How many takes did you have to do before this final one where everything seemed to work perfectly?
Edward Mendoza 1 year ago

Brilliant work Matt, I'm blogging about it right now!
