Every word to "Magnolia" (188) was handmade using cardboard (discarded from grocery stores), hot glue guns, and paint pens. Random people at over 65+ locations and a handful of friends were used as rappers throughout the video. The video was done completely practical (no CGI) and wound up costing a little under $80. *2012 ARTE Creative Music Video Award *2013 SXSW Official Selection [Music Video Competition] *2013 Sprockets Official Selection *2013 Winner UKMVA [Best Urban Budget] Official Promo for "Magnolia" by Lushlife ALBUM: Plateau Vision LABEL: Western Vinyl [WWW.WESTERNVINYL.COM] CREATED BY: Nik Harper and Jesse Lamar High DIRECTED BY: LAMAR+NIK PRODUCTION ASSISTANTS: Spenser Sakurai and Michael Raiden PURCHASE: http://westernvinyl.com/catalog/WV97.html PHOTOGRAPHY: Scott Sullivan [WWW.FLICKR.COM/PEOPLE/SCOTT_SULLIVAN/] Spenser Sakurai [WWW.IMAGESAKPRODUCTIONS.COM] Michael Raiden [WWW.MICHAELRAIDEN.COM] PHOTOS: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lamarplusnik/sets/72157631788294558/ MAKING OF: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeYAAEXoQYJitNXW-hanSkL7Z0J3uL9RT [WWW.THEYOUNGANDINLOVE.COM] [WWW.LAMARPLUSNIK.COM] [WWW.TWITTER.COM/LAMARPLUSNIK] [WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/LAMARPLUSNIK]

Director: Tom Haines Producer: Ilduara Lamas & Tom Haines Exec Producer: Tamasin Glasson & James Studholme Original Soundtrack: UNKLE DOP: Steve Annis Sound Recordist: Andy Paddon Editor: Julian Eguiguren Sound Design: Sven Taits Colourist: Ben Rogers Camera Assistant: Alvaro Gonzalez Runner: Miguel Costa Luminarias is a short visual documentary that mixes powerful images captured during the two day “Luminarias” fiesta in San Bartolome de Pinares, Spain, with a rich soundtrack comprised of an original UNKLE score, location sounds and a reading of the Rafael Alberti poem “Galope”. Using grainy 16mm film, Luminarias portrays the drama, confusion and traditions of the event in a painterly way, while the multi-layered collage of sound design and music and text render the drama of the fiesta. The festival takes place every January and involves “cleansing” horses and their riders as they pass through burning pine brush. Horsemen and women of all ages from infants to octogenarians take part in the purification and despite the dramatic, sometimes scary images Haines has captured here, accentuated by slow-motion photography, there is an overwhelming sense of pride, respect and care that the villagers have towards their animals, as one rider said “Luminarias is something from another world, for me a horse is a King, I understand and love horses”. Galope by Rafael Alberti Las tierras, las tierras, las tierras de España, las grandes, las solas, desiertas llanuras. Galopa, caballo cuatralbo, jinete del pueblo, al sol y a la luna. ¡A galopar, a galopar, hasta enterrarlos en el mar! A corazón suenan, resuenan, resuenan las tierras de España, en las herraduras. Galopa, jinete del pueblo, caballo cuatralbo, caballo de espuma. ¡A galopar, a galopar, hasta enterrarlos en el mar! Nadie, nadie, nadie, que enfrente no hay nadie; que es nadie la muerte si va en tu montura. Galopa, caballo cuatralbo, jinete del pueblo, que la tierra es tuya. ¡A galopar, a galopar, hasta enterrarlos en el mar! Translation Land, Land, Land of Spain, The large, the lonely, the bleak plains, Galloping, white-footed horse, Cavalier of the people, under the sun and the moon. Galloping! Galloping, until they are buried in the sea As a heart it sounds, resounds, resounds the land of Spain, in its horseshoes. Galloping, cavalier of the people white-footed horse, Horse of the surf. Galloping! galloping until they are buried in the the sea Nobody, nobody, nobody, there is nobody ahead; death is nobody if it rides on your saddle Galloping, white-footed horse, Cavalier of the people the land is yours. Galloping! galloping until they are buried in the the sea! © TOM HAINES 2012
