About the video:
"We wanted to keep it simple and analogue for this one - old skool shoot cruising around Glasgow and surrounds in an open top car in the freezing cold with playback blasting! We shot on our Bolex with lovely 16mm reversal, then got the film back and did chemical and hand scratch animation techniques directly onto the film, back to the lab for a re-scan and baited breath to see what it all looked like! No After Effects projects were opened in the making of this video!" Beth Allan, Producer
