Repa Nurmi: Looking For Gold
The story begins when the main character receives an invitation to the funeral of a distant relative. To his surprise, the deceased has decided to leave their inheritance to the main character. However, it's not much—just a single clock. Due to the main character's tight financial situation, he decide to turn the clock into cash at a local pawn shop. This is where the music video begins, and the main character realizes that in life, what truly matters is not money or success.
We are like ants, tossed around by fate, but still, we must keep our sanity and find contentment in the small things we have.

Arto Törmänen is a 3D animator and graphic artist. He has worked as an advertising graphic designer, visualizer of 3D games and he has won the church boat race championchip for a distance of 60 kilometers.
This video was mainly made in a studio, where we filmed the main and supporting actors in front of a green screen. This was new for all of us, so we followed a learn-from-mistakes approach from start to finish. Arto Törmänen edited the video, and I (Repa Nurmi) was more of an assistant director, syncing the audio into place. Ekku Ekström also worked as the cinematographer. Aivi Äm was new member of our team and she was enough crazy to jump in the scene!
