BABY BABY Music Video Now Live!

Our music video for BABY BABY's "You Can't Spell Conch Without the 'CH' is now up on our YouTube channel!



A variation on Lord of the Flies with elements from The Karate Kid and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (check out the radioactive pig man), this video was shot back in August on Jekyll Island shorty before we wrapped Invasion of the Undead. With most of our resources tied up in Invasion, we had limited crew, a shoestring budget and no permits whatsoever to pull off what was a pretty epic story line for a music video. Torey wrote the script (from a concept by Grant and Fontez) and directed the video, while Eric (Invasion's assistant camera) and Tricia stepped up as cinematographers using both the Blackmagic cinema camera and a 5D mkIII. Propmaster John Holbrook made all of the DIY weapons seen in the video (the sea shell spear and knuckles were especially rad), and Greg Garrison designed the fight choreography (he's turning more and more into Desmond every day). The enemy tribe are all performed by MonsterBuster regulars/crew members- that's Nathan DeRussy, Guy Smiley himself, sans make-up as the enemy leader, with Fred, Jay, and Eric rounding out the rest of the tribe. Fontez, Kyle, Grant and Colin of BABY BABY were all a blast to work with- you may see them making a cameo in Invasion as we shoot some pick-ups later this November.

As always, thank you for reading and Happy Halloween!
