PRIMO THE ALIEN
Music Video by Director Dorothy Bennett
When the Texas Snow Storm of 2021 postponed this music vide shoot, we were a little worried that our window of opportunity was closing to shoot one of our favorite music video pitches. Dorothy was 8-months pregnant and the storm set us back a few weeks. With the baby capable of showing up any day, we soldiered on and produced one of our proudest projects of the pandemic!
​
In addition to working with the insanely talented Primo The Alien and her infectious song, "Thunder," there were a couple other elements that really excited us about this shoot. First, Primo had teamed up with Andrew's old Shy Beast bandmate, Mariclaire Glaeser, to choreograph a dance performance to her song. Second, due to concerts being suspended by the pandemic, we were able to rent out ACL 3Ten and their LED wall. Dorothy designed a series of graphics to play on the wall and 3Ten lended us their Light Director, Brian Schrumpf.
​
All of these elements came together for one of our favorite music video projects yet!
