Sea Girls 'DNA' by Becky Garner
Rob Ulitski - 10th May 2022
Becky Garner directs a striking one-shot promo for Sea Girls, utilizing an intriguing photographic effect.
The sun-soaked video was shot in Switzerland, and features vocalist Henry Camamile running around a surreal-looking terrain, eventually joined by the rest of his band.
The off-kilter colour spectrum created by Garner and DoP Lucas Wilson is the result of them shooting on a camera using the infra-red wavelength. It's technology that has a fascinating background, and definitely creates a memorable aesthetic.
"When deciding how best to capture the band in a one take we, like anyone, wanted to do something not seen before." says Garner. "Using our background in infrared photography, we created a portable digital infra-red set up to capture the band in the mountains, in a surreal way that really catches people's attention and provides a fresh engaging visual throughout."
"This infra-red wavelength is what was used in the Vietnam War by aerial spies to detect camouflaged army bases - all grass would turn green and camouflage would stand out and brown and green.”
