DIRECTOR'S NAME: JACOB SUTTON / PRODUCTION COMPANY: D+V / COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: GREAT BRITAIN / DURATION: 1'37" / MUSIC: “LIQUORICE” PERFORMED BY AZEALIA BANKS AND CO-WRITTEN WITH LONE / CAST: LIL BUCK / DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY: JACOB SUTTON / STYLIST: TRACEY NICHOLSON / MAKE-UP: HIROMI UEDA
SHORT FILM SYNOPSIS:
Lil Buck has a natural talent that I found captivating. His movement can seem almost unreal. I decided to take this feeling of fluidity and unreality a step further in the film by creating a set that would allow him to defy gravity. Tracey Nicholson created brought a rich darkness to the styling using Givenchy by Richardo Tisci and Conquistador.
