Paloma Faith
Can't Rely on You (Live from the Kitchen)
A stripped-back acoustic performance, with the band gathered close and the song front and centre.
The brief
The deluxe edition of A Perfect Contradiction needed three music videos, and Can’t Rely on You was one of them.
All three performances were filmed in a single day.
The idea
We wanted the band to feel comfortable and relaxed, so we chose a beautiful London home as the setting.
The performances were designed to feel intimate, bringing audiences closer to the music and the musicians.
The production
Blonde filmed multiple performances using several cameras, creating enough material to give each song its own distinct edit and grade.
The visual treatment was tailored to the energy of each performance, while the audio recordings were also released on the album’s deluxe edition.
The results
The Can’t Rely on You film has achieved more than 1.5 million YouTube views.
Blonde’s role
Creative treatment, multi-camera filming, edit and grade.
