Wrench
“The Optimistic Wrench” is a music video for the band UV-TV, created as a fully animated
mixed-media production. The video was filmed against a simple white cyclorama backdrop, serving as the perfect blank canvas for the drawn and collage elements added during
post-production. The sassy garage rock attitude of the music aligns perfectly with the
collage aesthetic, setting the tone for the entire video.
It was important to me to pay homage to old-school photography and analog media
throughout the creative process. My goal was to achieve a high-fashion feel while keeping
the visuals minimal and innovative. Through creative cuts and dynamic collages, I aimed
to push the medium forward rather than simply crafting a polished piece.
This project required over 500 individual pages to complete and was released in
December 2024.
