I Go Crazy Music Video | Orla Gartland
There’s been a song stuck in the heads of many people here at TenEighty for weeks now. It’s ‘I Go Crazy’ by the brilliant Orla Gartland.
And finally, we have a visual that goes along with it. It is a weird and wonderful trip through the mind of all the creative team behind it. There’s Guy Larsen of Penny4 on directing duties with Sammy Paul as 1st Assistant Director. There’s Steven Bridges and his beard. Ciaran O’Brien is the Director of Photography. And so many more.
There’s a lot of eyes. There’s a lot of weird. There’s a lot of a lot of things. It is incredibly inventive and is a music video that should be winning a buttload of awards. We guarantee you won’t see anything like this any time soon.
