Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake and Blind make beautiful music together.

After the award winning success of Gnarls Barkley’s “Crazy”, director, Robert Hales and Vanessa Marzaroli, again teamed up to create a visually stunning music video that pulsates and vibes. This bi-continental HSI production began with filming on location in Manchester, England while Justin Timberlake was on his European concert tour. Vanessa quickly whisked the green screen footage back here to BL:ND in Santa Monica, CA and began its transformation. After working for 17 days straight with a team of 7 animators, Vanessa was able to create a rhythmic visual narrative interpreting the music and lyrics of contemporary pop’s leading man.

  1. Every-time I see this video I think its an ad. The ending does save it though, since the pacing is fairly fast and constant from the beginning. I still think the Jet music video is Blind at its best.

  2. Which Jet video?

  3. One of the best videos of 2008. Good work guys.

  4. This video is so great, I was always wondering who made it. Did you use After Effects, and maybe some of the trapcode pluggins?

  5. hehe this video is so brilliant it makes the music bearable

  6. @Gyorfl: They list what they used on the right ... Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, Shake, Maya, 3DS Max, Avid, Flame
