Honored to have contributed visuals to this historic reunion of legendary musicians in support of Teenage Cancer Trust and Mark Knopfler’s brand-new special recording of his iconic song “Going Home (Theme From Local Hero),” produced by his longtime partner Guy Fletcher, is Electric Studios.

We were eager to tackle the challenge of creating a music video for this 10-minute track, and working with such a diverse group of artists gave us the chance to showcase our animation skills. From captivating 3D plectrums to immortal guitar players smashing their instruments, we did everything we could to ensure that we captured the essence of this historic new recording in all its rock splendor.

“With a track comprising around 67 world-renowned musicians, it was comforting to be working directly with music producer Guy Fletcher,” stated creative director Sam Tootal. In collaboration with our incredibly talented artists at Electric Studios, we created a journey through the song, incorporating a multitude of contributing musicians’ names, guitar strings, live gig atmospheres, and ambient visual cues while applying meticulous detail to the incorporation of rock icons and symbols.

Fantastical, enchanted, and inventive. The greatest music video I’ve ever seen, hands down. Kudos to the person or people who did that.
