The brief

Ella wanted something she could perform in a single take, with the lights doing the cutting.

A one-room performance video lit with nothing but coloured tubes and haze.

The whole video lives in one room. Six coloured tubes, a haze machine and a single camera move that drifts around Ella as she performs.

We graded it bright and slightly washed so the colour reads as light, not as effect, and delivered a vertical cut for the release week.
