In an age where digital sounds have flooded the musical landscape, slowshift stands for authenticity. This is a band that is deeply committed to the use of acoustic instruments. Their sound is a testament to the richness and depth that comes from the craftsmanship of being a musician. We wanted to reflect this in our technical approach so we decided to make everything in-camera without the use of any CGI. Everything in this piece is biological, living, and real. We acquired many of the specimens from the Ecotoxicology laboratory at SINTEF SeaLab. This laboratory has husbandry facilities for aquatic organisms at various trophic levels, and they gave us a variety of different organisms. As we dived into this micro-world, we started to see similarities between the minuscule and the colossal. The cells and creatures we were studying started to look like stars and galaxies we are used to seeing through telescopes and satellites. It reminds us that we’re not just observers, but also a part of the bigger picture in the universe. Everything around us pulsates with life, a testament to the tangible and living nature of every element. This world has been here since the dawn of time, and will still be here long after we’re gone. This is where we all started, and this is where we’ll ‘EndUp’.

TYD is a directing duo consisting of Andreas Børsting Røe and Ole Jørgen Larssen. We're a passionate and dedicated group of individuals who believe in the power of storytelling. Our hands-on approach and attention to detail enable us to construct cinematic worlds where every shade of human feeling is vividly portrayed and earnestly felt. What truly fuels our creativity, though, is collaboration. By working together, we are able to bring unique perspectives and approaches to every project, resulting in truly exceptional work that not only tells a story but also resonates on a human level.
