What's Locked Behind That Door (2025)
Music Video by Sly Dog Studio Art Director, Associate Producer Global Music Award Winner for Best Music Video. "What's Locked Behind That Door" was inspired by the film The Brain That Wouldn't Die (1962), where a mad scientist conceals a terrifying secret behind a door. The doors serve as the pulsing core of the music video, acting as a powerful metaphor for the intricate tapestry of emotions we all navigate. The video blends motion graphic techniques with 2D and 3D animation, using black-and-white and color sequences to create a visually striking and immersive journey through human emotion. Advanced compositing, match-moving, and rotoscoping techniques were used to integrate archival footage with original door imagery, crafting a cohesive narrative that balances visual storytelling with space for personal interpretation.
