Out of Reach - THE SHOPWINDOW

Out of Reach takes the soul of the song and places it in today's materialistic society. If you're not blessed with wealth, for most of society that daily grind of trying to better your life, sometimes overwhelms the thought that maybe we've been sold into an impossible dream. Life isn't about the accumulation of wealth and possessions. Like Ferris Bueller once said... "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it"
A combination of shot material from the iconic streets of Camden and Primrose Hill, and a clip-based video one of the Shopwindow lads made on one of those online video makers!

Director Statement

As with all projects, we start off big and then bring it down to budget & time constraints, but this never ever stops us from being highly creative. The buck stops with Carl, as it represents his music. Thankfully, the mutual respect we have for each other pushes us both to be better.
We can't wait for a bit of cash, then we'll blow the doors off with that video...
