Video: My Morning Jacket, “Touch Me I’m Going To Scream Part 2”

August 18, 2008


While The FADER Light & Magic team prefers using our Photoshop 1.0 to scrawl chickenscratch and put Kanye's head on Enemy Mine stills, video directors the Mixtape Club employ Adobe's award-winning software to make the cutest monkey ever for the cutest musical monkeys ever My Morning Jacket. From the Mixtape fellows themselves:


Set deep in a verdant jungle on a dark night, "Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Pt. 2" stars a furry, timid creature with gigantic eyes. Mixtape Club drew from an array of inspirations such as the BBC's "Planet Earth", foliage plucked from the streets of New York City, and the work of Russian animator Yuri Norstein. The jungle world was built entirely from elements painted digitally in Photoshop. The finished product is a haunting, seemingly hand-painted, lonely story with a touch of fairy tale sweetness.
