$Scream | Behind THE SCENES Documentary Watch the original video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6EhGUOqb8U Watch the full trilogy here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVTpTD5eC1Y&list=PLggteBpnO30TNR7carQl21_BMyjfRwIjD 1st of January 2019 I released my biggest and most personal project to date in the film Scream. This was the final chapter and the conclusion to the Jackson Trilogy that was started with the BurnItUp video back in 2015 and later followed by the Black Or White video in 2016. Now after all these years my team and I have decided to finally release an exclusive insight into how this film was made in the hope of spreading some hope, love and encouragement in these troubling times where fear indeed is taking its toll on the world population worldwide. This documentary serves as a reminder to not let fear dominate who you are and as a way to empower anyone who watches. If you haven’t seen the original video then please watch it before or after you watch this documentary. Back when I released the Scream film i wrote a long description about the moral and purpose of the piece and since I very much still find it maybe even more relevant today Ive decided to write it again below. Enjoy the the documentary. Stay safe and take care of yourself and each other. With Love, T - Fear is like a virus that has the power to isolate us from the entire world. - We tend to fear what’s different to our own perspective and way of life. If we refuse to give love because of that, then we allow our world to be run by fear. - I believe that now, more than ever, is the time to understand and appreciate our differences, so that we together in unity may fear less of the unknown. - With that comes the real question. Do you allow fear to isolate and control your life? SCREAM is a story told exclusively through dance and cinematography with the purpose of highlighting many of the issues that divide and fracture our society today. Being afraid of what we don’t understand is part of human nature , but with a little understanding these fears can be turned into a positive energy that will transcend through generations and leave the world a better place than when we found it. This final chapter of the Jackson Trilogy marks the conclusion to the story that began in the BurnItUp! Video and then was followed by the BlackOrWhite video. Both videos were created in the spirit of the strong loving messages “Stay Versatile” and “Humanity should be our race, Love should be our religion”. With this final video the story comes full circle in the most complete beautiful way. Having been 2 years in the making this project is by far the most personal and accomplished production I have ever worked on and it demonstrates how much care has been put into each scene of the video from the entire team of extraordinary talents. Captured in the most stunning way by the DOP’s Josh Kinsella from Ninetyonefilms and Mike Dones from LA, this project also marks a long awaited collaboration between all three of us. Within the theme of fear this film is a personal journey of an inner emotional battle where fear (if allowed) can ultimately take over and the struggle to rise against it from within and not letting it define who you are. The film addresses the importance of giving hope and inspiration to others and how that in the end it will come back to help us when we need it the most. The world is meant for all of us. All bound by love. Love for humanity as a singular united race and that’s the most important message of all. The film finally addresses the responsibility we have to take care of each other and how important it is for all of us to guide the next generation into not making the same mistakes as we’ve made on that and many other topics. Children are the future. Let’s do our best to prepare them the best we can. We’ve got a huge responsibility in doing so and in teaching them, that being different yet united by love and mutual respect is the most beautiful thing in the world. Don’t be afraid. Humanity must aim to understand its differences, in order for fear to dissolve and life to begin. - Tobias Ellehammer 00:00 Premiere Night & Expectations 01:53 Iceland 07:28 Dubai 11:29 Switzerland 14:46 Slovenia 18:41 Wales 23:20 Utah 27:34 New York 28:24 Las Vegas 29:25 Flower/Mirror Scene 30:39 Garden Scene 31:25 Kenyah Hat Scene 32:54 Chaos Scene 36:22 Final Scene 37:29 Wales Mother Nature Scene 38:27 Tokyo 41:14 Premiere Night & Reactions 43:44 Credits Edit by Nikola Janusic Hosted by Kane Silver from The Ins And Outs podcast Produced by Ellehammer Creatives Directed by Tobias Ellehammer$
