U2's 'Get On Your Boots'
12th Feb 2009: Alex Courtes at Partizan has directed the music video for U2’s latest release with grade and conform carried out at Rushes.
The promo sees the band in an intergalactic environment, set against a backdrop of vivid changing imagery. The visuals constantly shift using references from surrealist art to modern and political imagery.
Courtes completed the video with the Machine Molle team in Paris. The rushes were then graded from 35mm film by Rushes’ Colourist Simone Grattarola with technical and beauty passes and then conformed and supplied to Partizan for final completion.
Malachy McAnney produced for Partizan with editing by Dan at Final Cut.
