Tasha The Amazon 'Cry Of The Warrior' by Colin G. Cooper
Jimmy Brown - 19th June 2014
Shot on a tiny to non-existent budget, Toronto-based television director/cinematographer Colin G. Cooper braves the heat and swamplands of the Florida Everglades with rapper Tasha The Amazon for this exotic and back-to-nature promo to Cry Of The Warrior.
COLIN G. COOPER:
"The production process for this video was a lot of fun. Tasha and I had already collaborated in the past, but this experience certainly drew us much closer together on a personal level than previous ventures.
"I was charged with establishing an exotic atmosphere on a non-existent budget and no time to seek permission for any locations. So we developed a system of continuous scouting and spontaneous shooting. We'd google key elements (national parks, abandoned structures, wildlife areas) and just drive around, jumping out to shoot whenever we came across something we liked.
"The Everglades provided a deceiving level of production value. And the ruins of a 19th century sugar mill made for a great authentic set piece."
