GERS PARDOEL - MET MIJ MEE

Gers Pardoel is a dutch musician known for his number one hit “Ik Neem Je Mee” and as a jury for The Voice Kids Belgium. His team approached me to make the visuals for his single “Met Mij Mee”. The video should feature his red Lada, a Russian oldtimer car Gers is very fond of and the lyrics of the song.

PROCESS

Since school, I’ve been a big fan of David Hockney, especially his earlier work. This California dreaming subject and pastel colours were perfect for this video. And since I’ve been practising in a similar style myself it was a perfect moment to use it. Specifically, I was inspired by the work of the Japanese artist Hiroshi Nagai.

CHALLENGES

While a painting is one static scene a video can be ever-changing. To take full advantage of this we played with different times of the day and see what effect they have on a single place. From night time to morning glory to the golden hour, they all have their own colour pallet. All making the same scenery look completely different.

If you have any questions about this project, Don’t hessitate to ask!
