The Polyphonic Spree, 'Running Away' (dir. Hal Samples)
The video was directed by first-timer Hal Samples and features over 70,000 still photographs from a ten day tour. More video info.
"What would happen if someone shot over 70,000 still photographs and made them into a music video?"
It would look like a standard live performance video, but with fewer frames and more jerky.
it's ridiculous. how can anyone get excited about making a slideshow look almost like a video. It's even more irritating than the latest Tori Amos.
yeah this reminds me of the presidents of the USA video where they assumed the audience would be blown away by a technique that really isn't that cool.
what would happen? you would waste over half the shutter life of a perfectly good DSLR camera.
HAL SAMPLES:
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE A LIAR????
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO LIE TO THE CITY, AND THE WORLD THAT YOU WERE IN ‘RECOVERY’?
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO HAVE 2 FELONY CHARGES AGAINST YOU FOR TRAFFICKING DRUGS ACROSS A STATE LINE?
HOW WILL IT FEEL TO BE IN PRISON?
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO LIE TO A WOMAN YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW……AND TURN YOUR BACK ON HER, AND BETRAY HER? AND THEN LIE ABOUT HER CHARACTER, AND PUBLICLY HUMILIATE HER? TRASH TALK HER AND TELL LIES ABOUT HER TO MAKE YOURSELF CONTINUE TO LOOK LIKE A ‘HERO’ WHEN ALL YOU REALLY ARE IS A ZERO?????? MELMOSA
More HAL Samples:
I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.
It can only be attributable to human error
