OK GO: THE WRITING’S ON THE WALL

Role: Editor

Agency: Special Guest

A dazzling, single-take music video built around mind-bending optical illusions and perfectly choreographed practical effects, The Writing’s on the Wall pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in a music video format. In other words, it's an OK GO video.

Shot entirely in one continuous camera move through a warehouse of precisely arranged visual tricks, the video mirrors the song’s theme of shifting perspectives and chaotic beauty. It became one of OK Go’s most acclaimed works, earning the 2014 MTV Video Music Award for Best Visual Effects, and continuing the band’s legacy of turning music videos into unforgettable cinematic experiences.
