Fortuno 'Alive' by Tobi Omola, Ja’lisa Arnold

Rob Ulitski - 2nd Oct 2026

Tobi Omola and Ja’lisa Arnold direct a feverish pand feelgood romo for LA-based indie-pop trio Fortuno. 

The video for Alive channels the chaotic energy of noughties pop-punk music videos, with the band performing to a crowd of seven from their garage with the conviction of an arena show.

Interspersed with fisheye dance numbers, kooky fashion and hand-drawn animation, it takes the concept of garage band-practice and amps it up to a hundred.

Loads of energy, splendid cinematography by Edson Reyes (and a grade by Beau Leon) this video is really great fun - and you get a great sense of Fortuno. Hopefully playing near you very soon, to a crowd larger than seven.
