Having shared four of the finalists in our music video contest for Soul Clap’s “Lonely C” over the past week, the quality of the work put into the submissions, and the variety therein continues to impress. Within the top five alone, we have videos from Russia, Korea via Ireland, and the group’s hometown of Boston. As we’ve said over and over, choosing a single winner proved exceedingly difficult, but we’re very pleased to share the grand prize winner for your enjoyment. A group effort shot in Vancouver, director Dan Hellmann’s video utilizes spontenaety, a beautiful cityscape, and creative costuming to capture the feeling of being alone, even when you’re surrounded by people. Congrats to Dan, and again to everyone who worked hard to share their vision inspired by the music. Read Dan’s account of putting the video together below.
