04 “ALWAYS” - MADELINE KENNEY
2017



Credits:

Directed by: Ben Smith & Madeline Kenney
Cinematography: Marley Sutter
Edit & VFX: Ben Smith
A colorful video about control and camouflage in the entertainment industry. Digital paint and projections reflect an inner monologue as performers glare right back at the viewer. 

We used green paint to key in some busy, colorful footage in a dynamic and tactile way. The same footage was projected onto Madeline in darker scenes, representing her inner monologue and the images and expectations that are thrust upon artists as they pursue success.
