Relaying The Metaphor




 (Video teaser for the music album 'Common Dreads' that was released in 2009)

Common Dreads is a concept album that uses many metaphors for the decadence of the human race and its slow but inevitable fall. 

War, Religion & Greed - Strong emotional tools to convey a simple message, alongside clever shooting and video editing. Utilising Subliminal imaging, sophisticated audio sounds and voiceover, and providing thought provoking topics... It leaves the viewer wanting answers.

Matching the theme of the album, the teaser answers nothing. It has no point but to prove one. I like this idea, the idea of directing the viewer down a path of thought without compromising personal input. The idea of the viewer making up their own vision, their own answers.

"The lions are at the door."
