For this music video with the legendary artist Bon Jovi and his band our director approached the visual showcasing the trials and tribulations in the world. Critical topics such as police brutality and LGBTQ rights just to name a few was chosen to be showcased in this visually stunning piece.
So within the edit decided to showcase more of a news style effect in which we introduced quick static cuts throughout the visual performance and what is being shown on the old television screen. With clever editing effects we also introduce moments of Bon Jovi performing on screen of the television, in his way speaking to the people of the world that we have to break down these Walls and make change now!
STILLS FRAMES:
THE CHALLENGE
Working with the director, I wanted to help capture the defining moment we were living through, using the legendary voice of Bon Jovi as the emotional centerpiece. To reinforce that feeling, we incorporated a classic CRT television with seamless screen replacements, allowing his performance and message to unfold naturally throughout the piece. The result was a visual that felt both timeless and reflective, amplifying the impact of the moment without overshadowing it.
