THE RENEGADE PEACH PROJECT presents AIRBORNE \\
A series of music video postcards set to music from home, with New Zealand based artists contributing unreleased tracks to the project. In 2015 The Renegade Peach Project ventured on a 3 month journey that began in Cambodia and wrapped in San Francisco. As we roamed, we captured hints of the streets, people, wildlife, food, and spirit of each locale before uniting our visuals with the submitted tracks. Each artist was asked to provide a time of day for us to film and a keyword or colour to help us capture the essence of their track. For “The Breaking” we were given the keywords “nostalgia” and “abstract” and we were asked to capture the city under the evening sun, in the twilight.
