OK Go have produced another killer film clip! Unedited, one take, lots of optical illusions.
Did you know the phrase “the writing’s on the wall” originally comes from the Bible?
OK Go make creative film clips. Here’s one. Here’s another. And another still:
Tech specs:
“The fastest we go is 172,800x, compressing 24 hours of real time into a blazing 1/2 second. The slowest is 1/32x speed, stretching a mere 1/2 second of real time into a whopping 16 seconds. This gives us a fastest to slowest ratio of 5.5 million. If you like averages, the average speed up factor of the band dancing is 270x. In total we shot 18 hours of the band dancing and 192 hours of LA skyline timelapse – over a million frames of video – and compressed it all down to 4 minutes and 30 seconds! Oh and don’t forget, it’s one continuous camera shot.”
Those creative cats from OK Go – the band that unleashed their dancing skills on YouTube in 2006 with that treadmill film clip receiving over 50million views – have done it again. Earlier this year they redefined ‘paint fight’ with This Too Shall Pass; now they have produced another well choreographed dance routine – this time involving some clever canines and some swanky furniture. Here it is:
Directed by Trish Sie and OK Go. Produced by Shirley Moyers.

The original film clip they made of this song is pretty good too.
