Right on cue, my buddy and amazing musician, Sam Plecker, reached out and said he wanted to film a music video for his upcoming track.
With that in mind, this is how a music video actually comes together — at least how I do it — from the first conversation to the final cut.
It had a lot of energy that felt warm, comfortable, and easygoing, so the visuals needed to reinforce that tone.
With our subjects, Sam and the moped, and a location at Sam’s family cabin in Washington, we had everything we needed to start filming.
All this said: “The stunts in this video were preformed by trained professionals, please do not attempt at home.”
