LIGHT PARADES - SPARKLE NOW ONLINE!!

Today is the official release date of Light Parades’ Sparkle EP which also means that I can now show you the music video that Factotum Films shot in December! And here it is!

This was one of the toughest, if not THE toughest shoot we’ve ever done. The conditions, although it doesn’t look that way in the video, were very testing for the crew and especially for our Actor Jade Lindores. We shot the opening scene at 7am on a Saturday morning and it was wet and cold, between takes we had to wrap jade up to prevent her from getting hypothermia. The shoot took longer due to the rain going on and off.

Other annoyances were that it snowed over night while shooting which changed everything. But it gave the time travel element of the story a nice feel.

After that endurance test, editing and waiting tight lipped for the release date it gives me great pleasure to finally reveal this video and I hope you all enjoy it.

LIGHT PARADES - SPARKLE

Over the last couple of month’s I’ve been busy in Factotum Films mode. Shaun and I have been working on a short video clip for a movie that we can’t really talk about until its release next Oct, so until then that’s all you can expect to hear. However Duncan has dawned his producer cap for a music video I have written and directed for the band Light Parades.

Dan from Light Parades asked me a short while ago to write and direct a promo video for the band’s single from their debut album/EP. As yet the album/EP is untitled but their single isa beautiful atmospheric slow burner called Sparkle.

I don’t want to get into specifics of the video’s narrative so for now you’ll have to make do with these teaser images until the video is ready for release. The release date will be set by the band but we’re expecting it to be around February/March sort of time.

As always I’ll let you know nearer the time.
