Music video · A film within a film
Good Exercise to Lose Your Mind.
A music-video sequence exploring the distance between a performer’s direct gaze and an audience absorbed in its phones.
The project
The story & the work.
Conceived as a music video within Out of Sight, Out of Mind, the sequence contrasts a singer’s direct gaze with a crowd distracted by mobile phones.
MGKcreative arranged the music and produced and edited the accompanying video. The feature’s festival record provides separate context for the wider film.
