Moby’s One Time We Lived is a stirring yet very calm and still digital exploration of mortality, featuring the legendary techno performer singing against a shuffling panorama of sunsets, palm trees, hillsides, and the glimmering ocean.
Macabre imagery – a floating mask, a bloody finger – occasionally floats over the scene, reinforcing the song’s melancholy spirit and haunting message, while typography delivers poignant reinforcement to the lyrics. This is a very personal and poignant piece for Pellington and was made with a crew of three people.
“I created these videos on a very small scale and in a highly personal manner-each was a collaboration of trust with the artist. They were open to my interpretation of their lyrics and the creative execution proved fruitful and meaningful,” noted Pellington. “I love doing videos because they are a highly personal form of expression for me, and yet can be open to many interpretations.”
Pellington is attached to direct the remake of The Orphanage for Warner Brothers and producer Guillermo del Toro as his next feature project.
