Beaux Jackson
This music video explores the inner being that plagues a person
subconscious. It's a narrative told through the lyrics of the original
song written and recorded by Beaux and his band and the images that
follow along with it. Though the images are strong and somewhat
disturbing in ways, the lyrics were the leading factor in this project.
The connections between the video image and sound is loosely tied
together and carries an abstract theme within it in addition to your
traditional music video styles. In deciding what song he wanted to
create a video for, he focused on using a song that would serve as more
of a concrete skeleton for a story. He looked for a song that would
also be relatively easy to match images with. The lyrical content
within the song doesn't match directly with the images on screen, but
Beaux feels that they melt together well to create a story. Even the
greatest amount of planning can't guarantee that problems won't arise,
however, the majority of changes and difficulties that occurred were
due to technical problems. The team that Beaux worked with had a good
idea, going into the project, how the outcome would turn out. As
hardware problems occurred after the shooting of the video, Beaux was
dedicated to create a great video, so he actually went out and
purchased some equipment so he could produce the video. As Beaux
states, Intrigue is his "...first completed video project, so I'm
pretty happy with the outcome." Keep an eye out because Beaux is about
to start working on his next, most recent video project.
