The Maccabees - Heave

This is my entry for 'The Hurtwood Prize for Young Filmmakers', for which I chose to create a music video for Heave by The Maccabees.
Big thanks to Joseph Walsh for starring in the video, Gemma Barter for driving over an hour to get us to and from location and Huw Jones for lending me his gorgeous lenses.
I wanted to create a very Maccabees-esque promo, focussing on the location, cast and visual style. I hope the effort shows and you enjoy the video!
Thanks for watching,
Josh
