NEW RELEASE: The Sounds "Tony The Beat"

SoundsThe Sounds
"Tony The Beat" (Warner Sweden)

Ace Norton, director | Charles Spano, producer | Partizan, production co | Ross Rege, DP | Brandon Driscol-Luttringer, editor | Description: The Sounds take the viewer on a surreal walk through a raucous party. Much of the footage is actually in reverse and shown at various speeds, while specific lyrics are displayed onscreen.  Not only does the clip feature DJ Steve Aoki and other scenesters from the  MisShapes party circuit, but it also replicates the hedonism (and nudity) closely associated with it. "It was a blast to shoot, everyone on set was either naked or drunk which is nice cause I'm usually animating toys frame by frame" - Ace Norton  -- watch "Tony The Beat"
