Premier: Blush, “Undivided” ft. Snoop Dogg (Animated Video)
Blush (Victoria, Natsuko, Angeli, Ji Hae and Alisha) have premiered the music video for their new single, “Undivided”.
The video, which was created by acclaimed animator Shawn Harris, was inspired by early ’80s animation from The Electric Company and Sesame Street as well as wall graffiti by mysterious international artist Blu. The final “Undivided” video features about 7,000 painstaking finger brush strokes. “The best media for this technique wasn’t print, but video,” explains Harris. “The Brushes application isn’t designed specifically for animation, but if you can manage to be deliberate enough to record each brush-stroke as a separate frame, it lends itself to a very organic-feeling style of stop-motion finger-painting. The video is an exposed process–basically one painting, painted over and over and over itself.”
“Undivided” features production work from Darrell Brown (Keith Urban, Bon Jovi) and Steve Schnur (veteran A&R executive and producer of over 150 soundtrack albums, including tracks by Florence + The Machine and Busta Rhymes) and mixed by Manny Marroquin (Pink, Rihanna). The single is out now on iTunes.
