Beds Are Burning Live Videos

marcus — Sat, 29 Feb 2020 14:37:27 +0000

we hired a small, pro film crew to capture the footage of me doing this solo/ audience singalong of ”beds are burning” at hamer hall in melbourne (this was jan 22nd)….. but the film clip became a seedling afterthought…the fetal roadmap to where we wound up, with a whole 8-song record with fancy collaborators. time rolled on, and, well, we have FIVE DIFFERENT CLIPS of the song solo, in total…. patrons can read more on Patreon.

An Entire Theater Gives An Artist A Hug

marcus — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 14:37:27 +0000

it was our divine luck to have a portuguese film crew in the house the night of the braga show. especially one who understood how to connect the dots of life and art. who knew?

i never in a million years would have imagined that THIS was what the result of my night in portugal would be….but there you go. the film only uses the first third of the song i wrote (which i called “bitter”). read the whole backstory and making of this film on patreon.

Star of Wonder

marcus — Tue, 24 Dec 2019 14:46:38 +0000

here’s a surprise present i made for you, with a stitched-together-star-gift of love. long story short: we made this video using a little selection of your hundreds and hundreds of photos from all over the world. i got this idea while i was standing out in the back of our flat in london about a month ago, and it’s one of those beautiful only-with-patreon stories. read more on my patreon.

The Mushroom Hunters

marcus — Tue, 26 Nov 2019 14:37:27 +0000

neil gaiman is tricky and weird. i’d been thinking about doing more animation projects for the patreon, and i thought this might be the perfect one to try, given how visual the subject was. i want to remind you that this is where your patron money goes….to pay this whole, huge team of animators, artists, filmmakers, musicians and engineers. read more about the process on my patreon.

The French Brexit Song

marcus — Wed, 30 Oct 2019 14:37:27 +0000

at the london patron pub gig at the end of august, i saw my dear friend maxim play this very hilarious song that was written by HIS cabaret friend sarah-louise (who wasn’t there). i said “we should record that and make a ridiculous video!!” because patreon, we could, and we did.

it’s called THE FRENCH BREXIT SONG. read more on my patreon.

The “Drowning In The Sound” Music Video Documentary

marcus — Thu, 12 Sep 2019 14:37:27 +0000

one of the things i’ve decided to do is basically make a documentary of every video we put out, especially if it’s a larger production. this one’s about 20 minutes long and includes interviews (with me, coco and pope), footage of rehearsals in NYC, and tons of really fascinating stuff about the process of making a video so….ahem….WET. i’ve watched it four times now and i’m still not bored. read more on my patreon.

Everybody Knows Somebody

marcus — Thu, 15 Aug 2019 14:37:27 +0000

after the news about el paso and dayton happening back-to-back, i was just like…fuck. there’s a mass shooting MORE THAN ONCE A DAY in my country. at the rate we’re going…won’t almost every town, every person, eventually, be affected? won’t the pain go fully viral?

i got an idea for a song. it’s called “EVERYBODY KNOWS SOMEBODY”. read more about it on my patreon.

Drowning In The Sound (The Music Video)

allison — Thu, 08 Aug 2019 21:59:42 +0000

this is the most ambitious (and expensive) video i have made in years. michael pope and coco karol and i sat down for the first meetings about six months ago.

we wanted the video to be not literal, but a feeling…a feeling that we all three of us saw in our heads. about flailing. about power and control. about drowning. we filled pages and pages with our writing-ideas….

this was the fun part. read the full backstory on patreon.

The Voicemail for Jill Documentary

allison — Wed, 15 May 2019 19:06:27 +0000

a video like Voicemail For Jill was a meta-video. we made a video, yeah. but we also created an incredibly important moment in time for the people in that room. including me. art heals. you’ll see what i mean when you watch the documentary. read more about it on patreon.
