Mae Muller 'Dependent' by Sophia Ray

Rob Ulitski - 23rd Nov 2020

Mae Muller struggles to make the choice between falling in love and keeping her independence, in Sophia Ray's ambitious promo for Dependent. 

Taking a deep dive into the artist's mind, we see a variety of scenarios exaggerating the crossroads she finds herself at, including a bathroom talk with the girls, and a dinner date with her love interest. 

Experimenting with POV shots and visual trickery in the art department, the video is a polished and playful visualisation of the track. 

SOPHIA RAY:

The video is a hyperreal voyage through Mae’s subconscious.

“I loved working with Mae. She has so much personality, so working with her on developing the creative of the video was a real treat," says Sophia Ray 

"The whole video is a hyperreal voyage through Mae’s subconscious as she argues with herself about whether a relationship is right for her. The dancers in the piece perform as extended versions of Mae, constantly niggling at her, and hindering her decisions - like her cautious subconscious trickling through as she tries to follow her heart.”
