Radiowaves is a music video made for UV Protection, a Boston-based band. It includes footage of elephants, water, and commercial segues that join two clips or scenes. I’ve always wanted to capture these .10-.50 second TV segues because their purpose is to end a scene and begin another. They're playful transitions and they carry a lot of visual power and have come to play such an important part in the way that television and advertisements are presented.
UV said this about the song, “we originally wrote it thinking about ghosts and haunted houses, how maybe they're just frequencies we can't understand, like radiowaves, they're mysterious and invisible, but we know they exist.” I edited the video while thinking about these creeping unseeables, and used the TV segues to lure and reveal these mysterious invisibles.
