“On the bus” by Ellen Krauss
Swedish indie pop singer/songwriter Ellen Krauss joins forces with director Gemma Yin to deliver the colorful and mesmerizing video for “On the bus”. With this playfully honest yet bittersweet soundscape she opens up her heart and soul and let’s us take a peak inside what’s going on inside of her. The track flows with ease and immediately hypnotizes your senses while crafting a tale of not only youth but humanity in general. It understands the need for escapism as our feelings and emotions may get the best of us even if we do not want it to be like that. There’s something about her voice and the way she dances around from note to note that makes us feel as if we were listening to a star in the making. So pay attention and listen closely for her name is bound to light up the sky. Enjoy!
[su_quote cite=”Gemma Yin, Director for the Music Video”]We wanted to make a vibrant video for ‘On the Bus’ to compliment Ellen’s colourful style and personality. She had seen a summery collage animation that she loved so we ran with the idea of shooting her in still photography sequences before deconstructing the imagery to build our own unique world of surreal collage. We meander between recognizable elements from the story of the lyrics and random things from Ellen’s imagination in this performance video – it is like a hyper-charged daydream![/su_quote]
