THINGS WE LOVE.
1. Lisa Mitchell
2. Dreamy indie-pop
3. When the visuals for a music video perfectly capture the music they’re representing.
So it’s a no-brainer that we love Lisa Mitchell’s new music video for Wah Ha BIG time.
We pinched Lisa’s breakdown of how the picture perfect video came to life from her YouTube channel.
This video came about in an unexpected way. A good friend, Kirrilee Bailey, and I went up to the snow for the weekend during the winter season just passed. We stayed in a lodge that was like something out of a Wes Anderson film (special mentions must go to one of its more obscure features: a single taxidermic deer hoof protruding from the dining-room wall surrounded by possibly the largest collection of Christmas-themed Austrian souvenirs in Australia.) Falls Creek is an alpine wilderness full of childhood memories of going skiing with my family. I spent our time on the chairlifts rambling to Kirri while she clung to her cameras, about the ski-runs my sister and I loved and where we’d meet Mum and Dad for hot chocolate at the bottom. Kirri and I didn’t ski this time - we just took in the views, played with Kirri’s prism lenses in the heavenly light and got lost in the bluest sky I’d seen in a while… The footage was so charming that we realised it would make the perfect accompaniment to Wah Ha; grounded in the Australian Landscape but somehow floating off into the ether…
