Charlie Turner and I created this music video for Lyon Hyams, who sampled the iconic song “The World Is Yours” off of Nas’s 1994 album Illmatic. Lyon reached out specifically to Charlie and I for the style of film I shoot and for our editing skills. Lyon wanted the style to feel similar to the Joey Bada$$ music video “Where I Belong.”
The camera I used to film was my twenty-one-year old Canon GL2, specifically for the vintage look that no modern-day camera can replicate
with filters.
The shoot surprisingly only took one day even though we went to several locations to film. Lyon lip-synced the full song at every location so we would have plenty of footage when editing and we could pick and choose and swap in locations with the words still being in sync.
We had a great time shooting and editing this video. What do you all think? Let me know your thoughts if you see me in the hall (I'm probably wearing a Domino's jacket).
