<p/> <p/> Following on from his mightily impressive <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/2012/07/18/napalm-death-the-wolf-i-feed-by-tim-fox/" target="_blank">video for Napalm Death</a>, Tim Fox has another special effects promo hidden up his sleeve, this time for slightly mellower, cinematic post-rockers Blueneck. 'Lilitu' is an impressive, totally CGI affair following the fleeting, but beautiful life of a solitary butterfly. Tim has brought an excellent sense of motion to his scenes, and has created some delicate textures and atmospheric lighting. Ultimately it's a sad story, but not everything in life is sunshine and lollipops eh <strong><em>Tim Fox on making the video for Blueneck Lilitu</em></strong> "Limited budgets, timescales and no performances to shoot around, the focus for this video was narrative, narrative, narrative! The track is extremely moving and to me felt quite sad - not in a depressed way but melancholic. I threw away any conventions of happy endings, or positive messages and concentrated on packing a heart-wrenching punch in the gut. So much so, that the band were uncomfortable with the initial ending. "We went through a few re-writes for the ending, originally the butterfly got caught in a bug zapper and then to add insult to injury got run over by a car. I think it crossed the taste barrier a bit! On showing my girlfriend an initial draft, and hearing her whimper towards the end, I knew it had the effect I was after."
