The Academy Is... "Classifieds"


 
   

Music video I directed for the song Classifieds, for The Academy Is... I can't remember the exact budget for this video but it was, as is apparent, very low. I think this was the third or fourth music video I ever made.The video takes place inside of a Playmobil doll house. I did all the compositing myself with longtime collaborator Andrew Ralston. This was the first time Andrew and I ever considered the possibility of compositing with miniatures, and we literally taught ourselves the process as we went along. This was a difficult video to make, at the time, but the learning experience was invaluable. (Check out my new video for The Delta Fiasco to see what a proper compositing job with miniatures looks like.)For some reason the band never released this video, I was never told why. I guess they didn't like it, or the label didn't like it. I've always felt really bad about that. There are a lot of things wrong with it, but considering all the work was done by two guys on a shoestring budget it's not THAT bad! Regardless of its shortcomings, it's fun and I think there are enough cool things that it's worth showing people.---Watch the making of the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

WOWZERS they're young.Bill's gotta be like 20 at least, right?this is a great vid.i think they should've released it but done it with a bigger budget (and of course same director).this has a lot of potential, not that it isn't really great.

Well, if it was the first video from Almost Here I guess it'd be good. But if it came after The Phrase That Pays this would be bad.

It's really actually pretty good, seeing as when this video was made, they were a fairly new band.
