Oren Lavie - Her Morning Elegance

Lavie’s video for his 2007 track Her Morning Elegance is sure to catch anyone’s attention. Directed by Lavie himself with the assistance of an Israeli-based team composed of husband and wife directing duo Yuval and Merav Nathan, model/actress Shir Shomron, and photographer Eyal Landesman, Her Morning Elegance was shot as a series of over 3,000 stills using a single ceiling-mounted camera. Prior to shooting, an animated storyboard using 3D dummies for the characters was created over a month’s time. Lavie and Shomron then recreated the sequence frame by frame. The resulting product is a perfect, Michel Gondry-esque representation of lucid sleep.
