Ruel – Face to Face

Shot over a few days in Paris, this music video for Ruel's Face to Face was a nod to his hardcore fans. Touching on elements of Eminem's 'Stan' music video, it explores the relationship some fans have with their idols and how far they're willing to go to meet them. Within a week of its release, the video accrued almost 2 million views on YouTube and became #5 on the Most Trending videos in the world. Left Studios produced on the ground in Paris, with Grey Ghost directing and Nick Rieve behind the camera across two shoot days. We travelled with our own camera kit built around a gimbal so we could keep moving through the city, with the local team sourcing lenses, grip and lighting, and scenes in the back of a Paris taxi among the setups.
