Tom Misch ft. Loyle Carner 'Water Baby' by Georgia Hudson

David Knight - 16th Feb 2018

Georgia Hudson's beautifully-crafted video for Tom Misch combines a spectacular winter landscape with urban cool, knitted together by an element of subtle magic. 

While a dancer performs on an ice-covered lake, rapper Loyle Carner delivers his performance in a house in London. But Tom Misch is elsewhere - performing the soulful jam Water Baby from under the ice. 

Shot in the Ukraine and London, Hudson has harnessed great work on both sides of the camera to achieve an exquisite music video.

 

GEORGIA HUDSON:

"I thought that Water Baby wanted to be something poetic and subtly surreal, that gave time to the lyrics and felt like a good flowing piece of liquid like restraint.  The track has a kind of honest simplicity. It also has a proper classic groove to it. So I wanted to go in with some old school, simple, stripped-back dancing to match. I saw the video immediately when I heard it, that first shot of a person dancing from a frozen sky, lucidly tripping at moonlight. I’m a sucker for a beautiful image.

"We shot this between twin souls, Peckham and Ukraine, with an incredibly resourceful crew who really managed to push what we had to achieve the most.
