‘Figured Out’ was the second of two performance music videos shot at Collingwood Arts Precinct for Melbourne two-piece, ALTA. Tasked with a unique brief – produce two films each with their own unique aesthetic, shot in a single location – we got to work.
Our approach was to pose a stark contrast between the films, where the first performance video ‘Now You Want Me’ is lo-fi and energetic, ‘Figured Out’ is measured and carefully constructed.
Working with DOP Matt Wood to bring Julian’s vision to life, we built a vacuous black set that isolated the performance of the band and invited the audience to become transfixed by the rhythmic projections.
The film is an example of doing a lot with very little, finding a clear direction and sticking to it without getting swept away by unnecessary complexities.
