Cache_bunny and Hok

This next collaboration from Cache_Bunny and Hok features the music track OMW by Jane and the Boy. The impressive video utilizes a range of techniques and technology to create a mind-boggling composition that’s difficult to figure out exactly how they did it.

Fortunately, Hok (Director) and Cache_Bunny (VFX) have created a behind-the-scenes to show precisely how the video was created. There is no doubt that these content creators have all the talent and creativity needed to create such a complex composition consisting of 360 cameras on a rolling rig, greenscreen backgrounds, synced performances, and a ton of editing work.

The music, performances, direction, and visual effects all work together perfectly to create a unique and exciting music video. We’re glad they made the behind-the-scenes video, or we’d have no idea how this was done.

Simeon Harris @Master_Sims

Simeon Harris, aka Master_Sims, is a talented sound engineer specializing in Podcasts at quailaudioediting.com. Using his sound design skills, he creates hilarious Instagram content based on popular music artists such as One Direction, BTS, and High School Musical.

When filming music videos, singers will sing along to the prerecorded track, and the onboard sound will be removed in the editing. Simeon reimagines the finished video by stripping away the studio sound and adding back in sound effects and vocals.

In this video, he shows how he does it, with the help of the Artlist sound effects library. While each video might only be 30 seconds long, much work and attention to detail goes into each, adding sound effects for the environment, performers’ movements, and lyrics. The precision and imagination behind his work are what make it so funny for audiences.
