Written, shot and cut by Lucky Soul.

Here’s what Andrew has to say about it…

“After blowing our video budget on one too many string sections, we decided to embrace our DIY ethic and shoot one ourselves. Everything from storyboards to sets, lights to animation we did ourselves and the film was shot on a long Saturday in Ali’s front room by guitarist Ivor Sims (who also directed the video for our first single) The video uses some really old Pelham marionette puppets that bassist Russell used to play with when he was a kid. They’re very macabre and have that disturbing Punch and Judy feel so we went for a Grimm-esque narrative with a distinctly non-Grimm disco breakdown.

The plot features the story of our puppet heroine ‘Dot’ and search for her abducted beau ‘Billy’ from her rough cut paper house, through cardboard forests to a ‘Watch With Mother’ style Studio 54, running into a host of weird and sinister characters along the way.

Shooting almost literally on a shoe string was challenging but probably the most enjoyable time we’ve had? a video and despite its low budget we achieved what we set out to do which was to make something very watchable, a little bit silly and a lot of fun.”
