For Summer Scouts’ first single off their 2015 album Deep Breath, I collaborated with band-member, Jared Gibson to direct this narrative music video for “Olympic White”.
We shot the video in North Eastern Pennsylvania in a town called Slatington, where we carefully chose locations that captured the isolation of the small mountain town that seems to be drenched in memory, but stunted in growth: a place that mirrored the struggling relationship of a young man and his partner.
Cinematographer Marie Hinson beautifully captured both sweeping landscapes and intimate moments. Dylan plays the lead, and the whole band pitched in as crew.
I edited and color-corrected the video. Watch it here:
