We’re excited to share a sneak peek into the making of Kim Cypher's upcoming music video, which is set for release this September. (Watch the final video here) At Evenlode Films, we had the privilege of capturing this vibrant project, and we think you’re going to love the final result.
The shoot took place at Smoke Joe's in Cheltenham, where we took over the retro café which is a 1950s wonderland. With props including vintage petrol pumps, classic jukeboxes, old telephone booths, and a striking black-and-white tiled floor, the setting was perfectly in tune with the atmosphere we wanted to evoke.
Directed by Evenlode's Tim Mountain, whose dual talents as a composer and filmmaker were instrumental in bringing the video to life. He certainly has a gift and a clear vision. His understanding of music and film was key to creating a video that not only matches the mood of Kim's track but also brings a unique visual style to the forefront.
Producer Catherine Mountain working behind the scenes, making sure every detail was to her exacting eye. Her dedication to maintaining the integrity of the retro aesthetic and keeping the production running smoothly was essential to the success of the shoot.
We were also thrilled to have the Flaming Feathers dancers on set, adding a dynamic and engaging element to the video. The space was filled with energy and such a lively atmosphere from the extras, which was exactly what we were aiming for. The experience was nothing short of electric. Kim Cypher’s powerful vocals and saxophone performance, with Mike on sound we really did create something fun!
As we move towards the video’s release, we’d like to extend our thanks to the entire team. Tim Mountain, your direction was key to achieving our vision. Catherine Mountain, your work behind the scenes ensured everything came together seamlessly. Kim Cypher, your performance was captivating, and Mike Cypher, what a legend! Huge thanks to Sara Tonks, Kim's costume designer, who brought extra pizzazz to Kim's look and the cast's, much to their surprise.
Keep an eye out for the video launch in October—it’s going to be something special. We invite you to explore all our films as we continue to bring diverse and exciting projects to the screen.
