Marvel Snap / Hero

Inspired by the shiny new Marvel Snap game, we were tasked with creating a music video for ‘Hero’. A banging new track by Martin Garrix & JVKE.

/ OVERVIEW

Trying to deal with a breakdown in his relationship, JVKE is triggered by a notification and falls deep into his own subconscious. There he compares his relationship to those within the Marvel Snap Universe. But does he seek solace from his pain? Or is he inspired to reconcile with his lost love? The video has multiverses worth of electrifying styles. We really tried to explore as many interesting techniques as we could. It has everything from watercolour anime, to 16-bit pixels, all the way through to a vintage risograph comic printed section. Yes, that’s right, we printed out a whole section in the risograph! “Nuff said!”
