Toulouse - Found

rubberband.

When we were approached by Toulouse to do a video for “found” we wanted to try telling an incredibly simple narrative. Obviously inspired by the song itself, we wanted to write a video about a man who is “lost” (in this case he dies) and then about his “return”. It was important that we (as the audience) can’t entirely tell whether this “return” is literal, metaphysical, or emotional, but that’s sort of the point because that’s sort of human’s relationship with death, it is quite uncertain. We also wanted to explore how to show sex and physical love without… actually showing it. Being representative instead of literal, or maybe something in between? That’s how we decided to shoot the consummation of their love and their reunion on a volumetric scanner. We worked closely with the guys over at this amazing volumetric video start up called Depthkit.TV to create this 2nd, 3D world the film eventually occupies.
