“A mysterious scooter rider travels through the streets of a metropolis, in a slightly surreal landscape. Suddenly – and out of the blue – our hero finds himself involved in a series of bizarre accidents that will severely test his and his Armadillo jacket’s resistance, as he’s caught in a world made of explosions, evil pie-throwing clowns and more… will he be tough enough?”
This new exciting viral was shot during two intense days on the urban backstreets of London, involving an intrepid stuntman and a globally acclaimed creative team.
The creative team was lead by Amsterdam based Italian/Spanish duo Ham & Kaas. Famous London based production company Stink Ltd, worked together with the British Directing Team Darkfibre to produce the viral.
The Director of Photography, Michael Bonvillain is famed for his work with TV series Lost, Fringe and most recently, the film Zombieland. The accompanying beat is from Canadian two-piece, Lullabye Arkestra.
The Band - The Music - Lullabye Arkestra
Canadian duo Lullabye Arkestra is Kat Taylor-Small and Justin Small. Formed in 2001, Lullabye Arkestra has always had the heart, soul and sweat of Kat and Justin at its core.
Brought together by love, they are bound by and to the music. It’s music by lovers, for fighters. When Kat picks up her bass and Justin gets behind the drums, the result is dirty, swaggering rock ‘n’ roll. The result is beautiful.

Great bit of production but I cannot bear the thought of any innocent scooters being harmed in the making of this film.

It’s true, I’ve tried it myself. No clowns involved though, just wet gravel.
