My music video for the Modest Mouse song "Missed the Boat" off the album "We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank." Definitely a learning experience: I did a lot of experimenting with integrating the band into the background footage, doing motion tracking (by hand!) and rack focuses and all that.

Created for the Epic Records/Apple Inc. Modest Mouse Video Contest, using greenscreen footage supplied by the band. Higher-quality version available from Apple here: http://edcommunity.apple.com/epic/item.php?itemID=102

Update: I didn't win - or even place. Ah well, it was fun.

  • Shame you didn't even place. I love the official video, but this is fantastic. nice work man.

  • Cool project..... BFA Film/Art - 1988!

    Wish we had this technlogy then.

  • Where's James Mercer, he sang back-up on this masterpiece?

  • wow. decent man.

  • Loved it.

  • After a while it starts getting boring. The concept is great though. I love the end when the boat falling apart. That was great.

  • Well-assembled, but not really all that unique.

  • cool video.
