A robot garbage truck malfunctions, destroying and sucking up everything in it's path. It's intense driver contributing to the chaos, journeys inside the robot.

Anarchic collage cutout animation using tonnes of photographs and stock images pieced together to create full scenes and landscapes.

Lyrical themes involve the throwing away of our future due to the lessening of ones abilities to reason and understand the world.

TheBandKnives is an American rock-rap group headed by Mr J Medeiros (Alltta / The Procussions etc), Tim Stewart (Lady Gaga / Rihanna etc) & Ricky Tillo (Lady Gaga)


After creating the official music video promo of 'Garbage Truck', I continued a great working relationship with a series of visualisers for the rest of the tracks from their album ‘11110’.

Each song on this amazing album features a different session musician who has their face manipulated in the visualiser of the individual track they perform on.
