Scott Yoshimura and Marissa Kephart’s band, Holding Hour, asked us to create a bright, fun video for their single, “Hopes + Horoscopes”. We shot our video at a photography studio and turned in a finished product two days later. One unique aspect of this project is the clothes-changing segment which begins at 2:38 and ends around 3:15. For this long shot, we used a mechanical dolly set at a consistent speed to repeat the same camera move multiple times while the band members sang in a range of different outfits. The effect compliments the lyrics, “when I think I’ve changed, I pick up more bad habits”.
