Movie Making is hard work, and much more complicated than just pointing a camera and rolling. There are moving parts that not everyone thinks of, such as feeding crew, paying for gas, and getting enough hard drives that if one breaks, there are backups. Its often thankless work, but that is what ReKon likes to do.
This time it was our great privilege to do our work with Our Last Night. Matt Wentworth, the band’s lead guitar, set out on a mission. Already busy cutting their newest album, prepping for their world tour, they decided to add more to their plate and make a music video or two before taking to the road. It was then they realized they couldn’t do EVERYTHING on their own, and decided to call ReKon for our production expertise. Producer John Thomas Schrad jumped on to helm the project.
Shot by visionary cinematographer David Carstens the video took form in the span of a single day’s filming at Independence Studio. It always does a heart good to see the creative efforts of so many come to fruition in such a dazzling manner. At the end of the day, the trucks were loaded, the crew headed home, the band was off to finalize the album, and ReKon’s Producer was left to begin the post production. An often thankless job, that at the end of the day is one of the most rewarding.
Check for the video to drop early summer.
