When my friend Dan handed me a thumb drive with some old footage from the 90’s that his friend had shot and asked if I could recut it to be a video for his band (Early Day Miners), I wasn’t quite sure what to do with it. Then he suggested I take a look at the R.E.M. video for Fall On Me, a band that is deeply ingrained in our formative years and over whom we’ve bonded. That was the key, and once I dove into the footage a narrative began to naturally present itself and that formed a loose story arc that resonated pretty emotionally with me.
