Kaki King premiered her new video for "Pull Me Out Alive" yesterday; it's the lead single from her new album Dreaming of Revenge which came out today. The video is exquisite and so is Kaki's voice and guitar melodies. According to the video's description, the entire 4 minutes was shot with still cameras using various lighting and shutter techniques to get the unusual visual effects. Then, the photos were collaged together to produce this masterpiece:Kaki King - "Pull Me Out Alive":The details on how this was done:

The video was made without film cameras -- it consists of over 5,000 still photographs shot on Nikon D30s. There are no special effects; all of the light trails were created by hand, with up to eight individual "light animators" flashing LEDs and flashlights on and off over a long (8 second) shot exposure. The video was shot in NYC over five very cold, 16 hour days in January. Special thanks to Eddie & Doug at Chop Wood Carry Water, the talented crew, all the actors & extras, Rockwood Music Hall, Jamie Proctor, YouTube and especially all Kaki's fans who came to NYC from as far away as Virginia.We'll be posting a "making of" video on YouTube shortly.
