Video Transformation

The 4am Taxi Video Transformation. I shot footage in the back of a taxi at 4am going along the FDR Drive from UES to Brooklyn. You know when you're half asleep and zoning in and out, but are still aware of what's going on? Well, that's the experience I tried to capture with the edits of this video. Music by #lcdsoundsystem
