The Dead South - Chop Suey [Official Music Video]

Official Music Video for Chop Suey by The Dead South Save / Order “Easy Listening For Jerks Part 2“: --- CREDITS Directed by Travis Nesbitt Assistant Director: Russ Dawson Creative: Lyle Bell Creative: Chris Wynters Additional Live Footage by Chris Wynters, Lyle Bell, Lauren Troutman, Morgan Coates Produced by Travis Nesbitt & Marky Pierson Edited by Travis Nesbitt Location: Mile Zero Festival Key West Florida and Key West Theater @travisnesbitt Blurb: In the The Dead South’s version of Chop Suey music video, we wanted to take elements of their live show and piece it together in an interesting way. Taking inspiration from System of a Down‘s video, we used blending layers and different motion graphics to give the illusion the band was morphing into one another. We took that inspiration with our version to the extreme by incorporating things like VHS film emulation and film scratches sampled from actual vintage film stock. Combining green screen footage of the band playing live, footage from the Mile Zero Fest in Key West Florida and concert clips from all over the world on tour, this video is a static mess of beauty, excitement and energy. --- Follow The Dead South Facebook: Instagram: Twitter: TikTok: @thedeadsouth Join The Dead South’s mailing list: --- Lyrics: Wake up (Wake up) Grab a brush and put a little make-up Hide the scars to fade away the shake-up (Hide the scars to fade away the...)
