Directorial duo rubberband’s latest music video is Lewis Del Mar’s “The Ceiling.” It’s a song that flirts with the idea of descending into madness.
The video posed a interesting creative challenge in light of the pandemic. The work was made with the parameters of quarantining and social distancing. The video spans a single night from sunset to sunrise while the band literally and figuratively moves across the walls of the space.
Production house SMUGGLER handles worldwide representation for rubberband spanning commercials, branded content and music videos.

Starting this week, FactSet will roll out 16 unique spots—a combination of :30s, :15s, :06s and nine “shorts”—across multiple channels including digital, streaming and CTV.
This :30, “Dinos,” has an office worker’s relevant reference to dinosaurs spark our boorish colleague who proceeds to utter one irrelevant fact after another about the prehistoric creatures.
The Los Angeles–based Docter Twins (Matthew and Jason Docter) directed the original campaign and this new humorous work through their production company, Thinking Machine. The identical twin... Read More
