Johnny Savage and Jacob Lee create a buzz on new Radiohead promo

It’s a wrap for two Art Department crew, Johnny Savage (Art Director) and Jacob Lee, (Props Assistant) on the new Radiohead music promo Follow Me Around starring Australian actor Guy Pearce. With production design by Mark Connell the video uses a tiny drone to give an insect’s point of view as well as the idea of surveillance cameras.

The formatting of the camera recalls the era of the original Radiohead song—two decades ago—with its low-fi 420p resolution. Produced by Academy and directed by Us, a duo made up of Christopher Barrett and Luke Taylor, the video features Pearce being followed around his flat as he tries to avoid the flying bug.
