A tri-segmented story of escape, runaway and change, LION’s emotionally charged Wolf music video from Director Elliot Gonzo (last seen on DN here), resolves from its volatile opening into the story of an enduring bond between two lifelong friends who flee a bitter past in search of the chance for a brighter future free from the scars of their upbringing. Working at a rapid clip, Gonzo successfully turned the shoot (on an Arri Mini and Hawk Animophics lenses) and edit around in a mere three days.

About the Author / MarBelle
MarBelle has a strange compulsion to watch as many films as he can get his hands on and find jobs that give him a legitimate excuse to drill filmmakers about their work. Directors Notes is the multi-decade incarnation of this disorder and remains so much cheaper than film school.
