Following his series of striking videos for TOMORA - Chemical Brothers' Tom Rowlands and Norwegian singer Aurora's side project - Adam Smith directs an epic and euphoric live performance for In A Minute, the closing track on their album Come Closer. The longtime collaborator with The Chemical Brothers on their live shows - from the legendary visuals (with Marcus Lyall) to Don't Think!, the film documenting their shows at Mount Fuji in 2010 - Smith is in familiar territory here and it shows.With the help of his regular collaborator Dan Lowe, as DoP and editor, he employs a tried-and-tested technique to achieve complete immersion in the music and the moment - overlapping two or more images, from two or more simultaneously shooting cameras - and works it to the max. For the full 10 minute length of the film, in fact.It's quite a trip. And for any Chemical Brothers' fans not yet convinced by Tom Rowland's new side project, this should win them over.
