Tune Into the Madness - Video Breakdown! (Patreon)

Crikey, this was a big one. Without a doubt the largest and most complex video to date. Six days of shooting, 3 separate sets, 2 green screen shoots, a location shoot (at night!) and more props and costume than you can shake a stick at, the video took months to plan and complete.

I've said in the past that shooting on a set instead of a green screen saves on post production time because most of the work moves to pre production. Fiend Like Me was a lot of work in pre production but once the set was built, post production as mostly easy street.

This video really did not comply with that theory! Almost every shot in the video needed some form of visual effects, from the 160 tvs that appear throughout to the transitions to the facial contortions. I tried to add something weird or unsettling to almost every shot, sometimes very obvious, sometimes very subtle. This video needed about a month or pre-production AND a solid month of post production.

This breakdown video shows you a version of the video with NO effects alongside the final video and all of the various pieces of archive footage used throughout. (Minus one of an opera lady I missed, whoops!)
