I created the illustrations and storyboards for the first music video to be released from Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark‘s ‘English Electric’.
The brief was to take the viewer on a journey through 1920’s metro-land via steam engine, showing its slow decline over time. I referenced the colours from the album artwork by Peter Saville, from bright neon tones to gritty greys and used a variety of art deco influences to create the train, people and buildings.
