We are so so happy with our video for Closer and so excited to be sharing it with you today! We were really trying to capture a specific feeling with this song and the video was the perfect way to really get across the magic of being a teenager, hanging with your friends and all the potential fun and awkwardness that goes with it! There were blanket forts, trampoline splits, swing sets, making out, garage jams and of course, plenty of karaoke.
The extras involved were great at injecting the youthful spirit into the video that we were looking for and are way too old to re-create ourselves. Our director Issac Rentz helped us interact without looking like lurking chaperones, and really created the perfect feeling of innocent electricity that we wanted to see for Closer. You can see it right now on Spin.com!
