Above is Ganymede, a music video I directed and edited for New Brunswick, NJ band Ghost Camp to promote their upcoming album.  A psychedelic riff on the "edited footage of me and my bandmates at parties" trope, I built a library out of pre-sourced self shot and manipulated footage from both analog and digital sources while also asking the band to come up with a library of cell phone videos.  I used this to replicate the feeling of a rapid fire found footage edit while always being able to cut to something new,while combining every different kind of video codec/ camera source/video feedback available to me to cause any video abberations to take on a natural feel.  Me and the band also kept in constant contact, them sending me more footage as I edited, me sending them daily updates.  This resulted in a post-concived theme for the video, which ended up centering around the anxitey causing networking elements of the underground music scene, and how difficult it is to communicate even though we have the means to do so at any point.

 

Below are a series of gifs made to advertise the video on the internet.
