MATT NATHANSON ~ MISSION BELLS
For Matt Nathanson’s eighth studio album Last of the Great Pretenders, we were commissioned to create this music video homage to his hometown of San Francisco and the great Alfred Hitchcock. It was a chance to revisit some of the iconic films (Psycho, Vertigo, The Birds), experiment with their visual and narrative patterns, and explore a city setting he would often return to, in repetition.
