De brittiska legenderna Iron Maiden har släppt en ny video till bandets rykande färska singel “The Writing On The Wall”.
Bandet hintade redan under gårdagen om videons släpp, och under kvällen hade den premiär på bandets youtubekanal. Låten är skriven av Adrian Smith och Bruce Dickinson och är producerad av Kevin Shirley. Såhär säger Bruce om den animerade videon:
“I had a pretty clear idea of the concept to accompany the song and when I met Mark and Andrew, on Zoom, it quickly became clear we were all very much on the same wavelength, and this was reinforced with the addition of Nicos and his young BlinkInk team. Our weekly team Zoom meetings were then usually both highly creative and a lot of fun!
I’m very proud of the way the video turned out, it’s more like a mini-film really. I knew it was going to work out as soon as Mark brought my treatment to life with his incredible storyboards – I thought we could make something very special together. I think we did and hope our fans will agree. In fact it it’s pretty much created by Maiden fans!! ”
Director, Nicos Livesey takes up the story: “We quickly found the expertise we wanted, and people were literally throwing themselves at me to work on a Maiden video – we had more than 60 people in 13 countries from Brazil to France, & Romania to the USA to add something to the clip and I’d say their love, passion and understanding of the band shines through every frame.”
