New TDB Music Video

Bob Dylan - "Must Be Santa" dir. Nash Edgerton

Watch Here.

Trivia:

-First video with Dylan in it since "Things Have Changed" which was the song made for "Wonder Boys".

-Nash is actually the stunt man in the video, and is mostly known as a stunt man, he was the body double for Obi-Wan Kenobi, as well as a stunt actor in the Matrix trilogy films. (Nash's brother, Noel Edgerton played Owen Lars in the prequel films.)

-Nash previously directed Dylan's video for "Beyond Here Lies Nothing".

-This was a 21 hour shoot, that ended at about 3am. I got home at 4, up at 8 for work the next day. Which without factiousness, was great.

-The day before the shoot, we actually went to the location and did a walk through, where I stood in for Bob Dylan, and we basically worked out the effects and blocking.

(Ask me if your are curious about technical details on how this was shot, lit and what stock.)

2 comments:

  1. that video is perfect for the song.

    when you stood in, did you exhibit smooth moves like Dylan's?

  2. I was just as much a stiff as he was... and probably knew the words just as well.
