Liz Lawrence 'Big Machine' by Brendan Cleaves

Rob Ulitski - 18th Mar 2024

Liz Lawrence and their butler sidekick) dispose of their posh family with sound waves, in Brendan Cleaves' darkly comic promo for Big Machine.

It's a bit morbid, but with a humorous spirit, as the pair head into the family's estate, and turn up the volume on their oscilloscope to devastating effect. DoP Howard Mills' cinematography adds a surreal eccentricity to the concept, utilising strange angles and intrusive perspectives to add to the off kilter tone.

It's safe to say the video is a trip, and if you see Liz come by with an oscilloscope, cover your ears...
