Dn last caught up with Director Jesse Leaman for his Guy Pearce starring short Lorne, in which we conversed about the film’s intense, single-day shoot that captured the story of one man’s isolation. Leaman returns to Directors Notes’ pages today with an equally ambitious film in the form of After Life, a music video for Melbourne-based singer/songwriter Sam Phay. The video, similarly to Lorne, follows an individual traversing a nightmarish reality. This time however he does so through the medium of dance. This gives After Life an eerie yet poetic quality which made it a film we just had to share. Dn is delighted to feature After Life below accompanied by a conversation with Leaman about the process of creating a music video with next-to-nothing and making it feel as vivid and ambitious as possible.
