Here is our ARTSY offering to all of hipsterdom. We salute you from SIlverlake to Williamsburg. Lots of greenscreen fun, we parody in a range of styles from some of our favorite Artsy artists. Longtime friend and client The Grouch approached us with the song “just wanted something funny that didn’t show his face too much.” This video was nominated for MVPA’s 2008 Best Hip Hop Video of the year, the front page of Youtube, Myspace, & chosen by MTV staff to be put onto MTV2 + MTVU.
The PARANOID OR CONSERVATIVE VIEWER may be confused by the ARTSY video’s persistent presence and condemn it as an underground cult with extremely subversive intentions. The ARTSY video is none of that. The ARTSY movement can best be explained as an experiment in ARTOLOGY. This experiment is being conducted through the portals of social ART known as Youtube and Myspace. We also are offering a high res version on Itunes. So please help support, as fine ART ain’t cheap.
Secret History directed, Buildestroy designed and animated, ReelRoots shot, and Crown Editorial edited, The Grouch rapped. A family affair, looking forward to more.
