I’d like to share with you a music video I directed for Dublin band – Chewing on Tinfoil. Two hours, two cameras in the pouring rain in Crumlin and a lot of fun to make.
The band are currently on tour in the UK but their new EP can be listened to for free on their bandcamp here.
Shout-out to Sharon Crowley, photographer and blogger – for shooting the second camera!
