– Survivor N music video production
Commissioned to produce and direct a music video for a song by Irish folk singer Tommy Sands whose message speaks against collusion between church and state to drown out calls for help by an abused whistleblower, it was decided to follow the journey of the song’s protagonist (played by an actor) on their journey towards suicide and redemption.
The visual journey begins 400 feet above mountains and water filmed by drone high above the County Down countryside, before we move to ground level, where we join the story’s protagonist on a journey to near death, culminating in calm and resolve.
Still photos that illustrate the words in the song, were tracked to drone filmed aerial footage in the edit, adding a surreal and engaging look and feel to the project.
Client: Tommy Sands
Timeframe: 4 weeks

Overhead footage of the main wall at Spelga Dam reservoir, leads us to the spot where the protagonist is shown to have attempted to take their life as a result of abuse by a member of the UK’s primary religous organisation.

Highlighting how abused individuals can be affected when their pleas for help are whitewash by the powers that be, we see the video’s protagonist drowning in a gigantic reservoir.
