Asif Mian was made for fighting with woodhands
Spy director, Asif Mian helms his latest video (I Wasn’t Made For Fighting) for the quick-rising band, Woodhands.
When asked about his ideas and production hurdles, Asif had this to say:
AM: “Taking inspiration from the lyrics “one more time” from the chorus of the song, the idea became about repeating the events of a day and subsequently having the guys find out that they can manipulate the (time frozen) people they are encountering again. This led to a host of ideas, situations and visually abstracted scenes that kept escalating this idea of frozen, manipulated time. Simply, I thought I could make exciting images using this concept/story.
As usual, I like mostly everything in camera, so a lot of rigging with fishing line, wire, hairspray and custom made stands & rigs were used to manipulate people and props. It really was a process of the concept meeting directing actors, consistent lighting, art direction tricks and post refinement in order to create and accentuate this distilled mood.”
