When I first set out to write the treatment for the “Rudimentary Science” video, I knew I wanted to include elements of old Hollywood cinema. Some of those elements and items (slate and bullhorn) I ended up renting from a prop house. Other pieces I had to shop and source myself. I decided I wanted a moment of action where a crew member would powder my face like you would see as done on an actor before filming a scene. We call that moment “last looks.” Because the video was going to be black & white, I chose a brush that had white bristles and a large head to be most visible. In an attempt to “age” and “greek” (hide branding and logo) the brush, I subtly added some black gaff tape to make it look more personalized for the role of the makeup artist in the video. Like I did with the slate, I marked the gaff in some chalk with a personal notation- in this case, my initials, CR. I really love how the video came out. I’d say the brush bit worked out great, too.  ~crash
