BLONDE REDHEAD - GOLDEN LIGHT — Video by Virgilio Villoresi

quote [ "Golden Light" is Blonde Redhead's official music video directed by Virgilio Villoresi and is about a surreal dreamlike love story reminiscent of the Symbolist' art of dream. ]

I have the luck of knowing Virgilio quite well.
Nonetheless, I have confidence that the inherent quality of his work will spare me from running the gauntlet of an Unworthy Friend's Link.

Quoting: "the video features the RGB optical illusion, a device that also Mario Bava used in his horror masterpieces. There are not post-production effects and everything is handmade, recreated live. The illusion takes advantage of complementary lights to show a red, blue or green drawing each time, depending of the color of the light projected".

Nice piece. I do wish he'd stabilized that hand-held shot at 1:10, though. Maybe it was intentional, but it doesn't feel that way; it's quite distracting in the middle of all the other smoothy panning, tracking and dollying shots. Or maybe he's being a purist, but I don't think it would be cheating as a "post production effect" to run that one shot through AfterEffects just to smooth out the motion a bit.

Love this band.

Elephant Woman is especially noteworthy.
