For our convenience, efficiency, and low budget, we transformed my driveway into our set for the music video! I projected the visuals I created ahead of time onto a 200 inch screen on the other side of the car. We did it this way as opposed to using a green screen because it gave us real reflections on the car, and positioning locked in with my camera movements.
The idea for this music video was unlike anything I’ve done before, so I needed to test out the projected visuals in advance to make sure it would all work out. I filmed this proof of concept in my bedroom with a Luigi Kart toy, and immediately knew that we were good to move forward with the production.
We did the weather effects in camera to make things look authentic and natural. Having these things already in place made it so much easier to enhance these moments in editing with digital wind, fog, fire, and rain elements. Having the camera shake at varying intensities depending on the shot was the final touch.
