Josh Record 'The War' by Ellis Bahl

David Knight - 9th July 2013

Ellis Bahl, best known for the gripping suspense of his UKMVA-winning video for Alt-J's Breezeblocks, ventures into more dreamlike territory for Josh Record's The War. 

In fact, Ellis uses darkness, smoke and a mysterious spectral figure to play off the folky intensity of the song. And among slow-motion explosions and ethereal imagery (captured by DoP Steve Annis, quite a departure for him too) Josh Record is haunted by a figure swathed in fabric, and immersed in a darkly atmospheric world shaped by flares of light. The sort of dream that has you waking in a cold sweat.
