Hazel English 'Shaking' by Erin S Murray
Rob Ulitski - 19th Nov 2019
Hazel English plays a charismatic cult leader, who lures a new recruit into a jello-eating frenzy in Erin S Murray's video for Shaking.
Walking down the street keeping himself to himself, a guy is taken in by English, as she stops and whispers sweet nothings into his ear. Then she leads the new guy to her sanctuary, where a group of topless, long-haired twentysomething males offer a warm arrival, making him feel like part of the family - possibly, the Manson Family...
But then we are introduced to the shaking... a group jello-eating scene, while Hazel teases her followers with a peach.
Beautifully lensed by Jake Ures, the abundant natural light gives the sanctuary a Eden-like glow, with each of the characters washed in soft light. And Erin Murray - whose work as a choreographer includes the Ed Sheeran & Chance The Rapper video for Cross Me - shows she's a talented director with this fun low-budget video bolstered by confident craftsmanship and committed performances.
