Check out "Stevie," a collaboration between Director Ante Kovac and Cinematographer Stuart Campbell. This short, dance film, set to LCD Soundsystem, takes us into the mind of a daydreaming teenager.
Music can transform. And, who better to transform Stephanie, a high school teen living in suburbia, than the pulsing beats of LCD Soundsystem. As the music slowly overtakes her, Stephanie becomes Stevie – a punk, electro-disco club girl that is living in the moment. With a nod to the Spike Jonze ‘Drunk Girls’ music video, the band’s mascot sparks a journey that takes Stevie from her childhood bedroom into a dance odyssey.
