This hilarious music video for Darwin Deez, ‘The Mess She Made’, was created by aligning Deez’s facial features with currency in real time. It was directed by Oscar Hudson, and the result is gold. Happy Friday!
From the director:
“The idea for the film came about quite a few years ago whilst messing around with the po-faced kings on the Morrocan banknotes after a lazy holiday lunch. I thought it was really funny but I didn’t think it’d ever go beyond that dinner table. When it occurred to me that it would make a great music video I was kinda surprised that no one had done before to be honest.”
