Mister Whitmore sets an effortlessly cool vibe for the piece in which we see some people queue endlessly for a club to no avail. The Snakehips vid also features a stunning performance from US star Tinashe.
"When the project came in it was extremely open ended, all that mattered was that we use duck character's to announce that Quack Is Back. The cherry on top to it all was how much time we had. There wasn't some unrealistic deadline viciously thrusting us into production, instead, we actually had time to sit with the concept. So we spent a lot of time writing with DS's team, going back and forth on characters, their stories, and which tracks fit which duck, and by the end of it all, we chose to produce the concepts that made us giggle like a group of school girls.
When it came to production, we went out with a concise little crew that was hell bent on shooting some ducks gorilla style. It was really fun seeing people just stop and stare in amazement as we were filming, at one point a toddler freaked out and starting crying at the sight of a duck billed man playing basketball. After editing the films, my favorite thing is asking people which of the series is their favorite. I think you could probably develop some sort of psychological profile around each of the videos and what it says about you depending on which you like best. My favorite is the weight lifter duck, so feel free to analyze what that says about me."

Poets: This is a video about heartbreak. Literalists: This is a video about a dude who got stabbed through the chest. Either way, the video works perfectly as you realize how hard it is to stand out in after-hours Hollywood.
