Video

The video was released on 2 March 2016. [2] The music video is directed by UK based director Toby Ashenheim, and the poignant video sees two puppets engaged in a stirring and emotional dance, mirrored by their human shadows. The video took months of meticulous, painstaking work to create – the dolls animated predominantly by hand using strings and basic rigging to simulate dancing, with 3D animation taking care of more complex movements. Toby Ashenheim said; “To me the song feels really fresh and uplifting, and I wanted to try a simple concept to echo that feeling. I had the idea listening to the track; an image of a worse for wear mannequin, casting a shadow far more dimensional than its stock “one size fits all” appearance. In a way the dolls could be anyone, what’s important is that when they’re together they become something truly special, representing a special bond between two people who have been very close friends or lovers… a dynamic that may only ever be understood by them”.
