Synopsis
A music video for Burrow: Pull The Lever
About the Work
Pull the Lever channels the song's themes of rupture and escape into a destructive performance. Drawing from post-punk and garage-rock aesthetics, we used raw physical action to mirror the emotional urge to break out. The result is cathartic and tactile: intimate, volatile, and grounded in real destruction rather than polished spectacle. It's a visual response that matches Burrow's unfiltered and urgent sound.
Pull the Lever is a music video for Burrow, on which I worked as co-director and cinematographer. I was involved across pre-production and concept development through to directing and shooting, shaping the visual language and working hands-on with performers. The video was shot in a house scheduled for demolition, which allowed us to collaborate with local performers to physically disrupt the space: sledgehammering walls and breaking windows. I shot the majority of the footage alongside musician and close collaborator, Drew Kendell.
