Vlny. "R'N'B"
Vlny is a group of Dmitry Artemyev from Samara, who writes lyrical rock in Russian. In October, Vlny released the third album “Closer”, where you can hear that the group carefully monitors the trends of Western music-from The Weeknd to Dream Pop , but at the same time finds its melancholy intonation. Dmitry Artemyev’s songs are devoted to the experiences of young people, so it is not surprising that the group made a clip for the song “R'N'B” in the format of personal videos from Instagram Stories, which are now communicating 20 years old. It tells the story of three careless representatives of their generation.
Dmitry Artemyev, soloist Vlny
The idea to remove the clip on R ' N ' B was spontaneous. In the summer, director Zhenya Trufanov called me and said that he has an idea to remove a vertical clip in Instagram Stories format. At that time, several songs from the new album were ready, but this song stood apart, so they chose it. Zhenya wrote a script in two days, the work went. The guys and I participated only in one shooting day and did not even imagine what would work out in the end. But still, the clip pleasantly surprised us, it very well conveys the atmosphere of the song. And I really liked how the actors played their roles. I think that the prank was a success.
Evgeny Trufanov, director
To date, the reality is such that personal life is increasingly indulging in publicity - both of his own free will, with a wildly progressive development of modern technologies, and being part of the life of another person. Each time, taking something personal to the public, we are a little empty of ourselves. I am convinced that in the end with this trend we can remain completely empty and can simply blow us out. A clip for and about modern youth, which is not alien to the path of self -destruction and which I am directly related.
