So long my fickle friend, I don’t need this…..
Having produced a Q music award winning video for the Manic Street Preachers last summer, we were delighted to hear that they wanted us to produce the band performance in their latest video for their new track ‘Walk Me to the Bridge’. Having effectively worked with Bafta award winning director Keiran Evans on three previous Manics videos, we were confident we could capture yet another amazing video with him at the helm.
The track is the first single from their upcoming album ‘Futurology’ which was recorded in the famous Hansa Studios in Berlin. The video is also set in the German capital, where a young woman follows cryptic clues around the city, which lead her to the hangar where the band are performing.
The shoot took place at our largest location to date, a mammoth aircraft hangar on the outskirts of St Athan. The sheer vast size of the structure left everyone speechless as they arrived. Each of the doors were the size of a family home and it took some effort to pry them open and shut. Gaffer Mark Holownia and his team did an excellent job with 11th Hour Events and Spartan Audio to spark the empty hangar into life with an impressive lighting and sound set up.
Like and Egg are immensely proud of the work and we’re thankful to each member of the crew who made this such a successful shoot. We’re delighted to showcase the wealth of filmmaking talent that Wales has to offer and we look forward to flexing our filmmaking muscles again in the future. Check out the video below!
