Iggy's Revenge

Type / Typography

Norman Cook's latest venture, Brighton Port Authority, has Iggy Pop providing guest vocals on the track, He's Frank. Directed by Nick Ball at Draw Pictures, the promo for the song features a well-worn Iggy puppet, in his traditional "top off" mode. The twist is that as the track progresses Iggy begins to turn on his "bunraku" puppet masters. But what's got Iggy so annoyed? Maybe he's finally seen those Swiftcover ads he did not so long ago...

Watch the promo at Draw Pictures' site, here.

Director: Nick Ball. Producer: Camila Klich. Production Company: Draw Pictures. DoP: Daniel Bronks. Editor: Marek Budzynski. Grade: Kenny Gibb.

Glad you mentioned those ads that are running at the moment. The guy is becoming a walking cliché.

Haha. The second picture looks like it belongs in the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Then again, Iggy Pop does himself!

Very clever idea. I like it.
