In-A-Gadda-Da-Steve

Bloedskande - Almal Doen Net Wat Hul Wil
Bloedskande - Almal Doen Net Wat Hul Wil!
Music Video for the Johannesburg based band Bloedskande. 2010. My first attempt at directing.
"Almal doen net wat hul wil" is Afrikaans for "Everybody does just what they want". This pretty much sums up the whole experience, we did just what we wanted and rolled with the punches!
The idea is mine. I "directed" it, which was more like managing it. Ewan Dressel and Stephan Nieuwoudt filmed it.
We hooked up a inverter to a car and projected the images from the car onto Johannesburg and filmed it.
Deon Haumann assisted all the way. He did all the lightning and steered me in a directing direction. Sadly he passed away before I finished with the editing. We dedicated the video to him. He was someone who did as he liked, so the song fits. We'll miss Deon forever.
Alan Fyfe was set alight, but not burned. Alan passed away in 2015. I'll never forget the fun we had setting him alight. He was a courageous stuntman.
Loads of friends helped with additional photographs and mobile phone footage of Alan burning.
Bloedskande was Jan Swart, Shaun Ruysenaar & Guillaume de Swart. Rare Afrikaans punk. BLOEDSKANDE!
