DEAD SARA: Heroes

a quick turn-around, pandemic safe video!

early in 2021, I got a phone call from dead sara, asking if we could turn-around a video in a week. I said “um… yeah!” because well… “um… yeah!” the band wanted to capture their performance energy, and the lo frills vibes of alternative music videos from the early 90s. This was still very much during pandemic protocols, so we had to get creative on where we could shoot. We basically settled shooting in my apartment, the roof of another friend’s apartment, and in the SEGO practice space in DTLA. the lead singer of sego (spencer) also hooked us up with the rad animated intro.

We spent a couple days organizing, a couple days shooting, and I completed the edit in 72 hours. The crazy push to get this filmed and completed resulted in a video that really showcases the band as they are, without pretense, just cranking the volume to 11 and having fun.
