Solo Artist Hilang Child release his first full-length album released on Bella Union. We created a music video for his lead single ‘Good to Be Young’.

Hilang Child wanted a bittersweet video which communicated the dark side of social media. 

We envisioned a dance video which blurred the lines between fantasy and reality. 

We used Noitom Perception Neuron Motion Capture suits to capture the positional data of our dancers Hazel and Rachel. Real-time motion graphics engine Notch was used to animate the 3D graphics of the dancers and all the VFX looks. This is the first use case we have seen where compositing of positional data into a real-life scene in Notch and Perception Neuron.
