Jason Forrest - War Photographer
by kuSo
It's fairly hard to write about music videos like these, which seem to have no meaning or aim besides being really awesome therefore appealing. So I'm going to write about that.
The song, War Photographer, is a fairly epic rock song, and so the director, Joel Trussell, decided to create visuals to match this, making a video more manly than all of Arnold Schwarzenegger's filmography combined. In the video, two Viking ships battle each other with guitar solos, until they both transform into giant robots, and hit each other around for a bit. I suppose this is a good example of how the genre of music can or should influence the themes of the video, and how the "epic rock song" genre (a title I just made up) should be really epic. Either way, I feel that on a limited budget of non-existent, CGI robots, or even just Vikings playing guitar will be out of my reach. Shame.
