White Lines (D & S Remix) - Melle Mel and The Furious Five

This is the first music video that I produced for broadcast.

Filmed in Pyrmont, it was made in early 1995 to be the official video for the D&S Remix of White Lines (Don't Do It) by Melle Mel and The Furious Five.

Last time I heard, it was still getting airplay on the all-night music video program Rage. (And if it's not, do ask for it... they'll have it in the library.)

Trivia: That's about 20 Australian dollars worth of icing sugar, just in case you're wondering. The puppets were built using an old stuffed polar bear and the arms from an atrocious cardigan. The location was decided by a total failure of a battery unit; we were forced to string a series of extension cords together and shoot the external footage in the alley behind the studio.
