Born and raised on Cape Breton Island, Liam MacDonald is a 21-year-old filmmaker with skills in producing, cinematography, directing, writing and editing. He is a graduate of the NSCC Screen Arts program. Liam's focus remains on people and their relationships with the environment; captured through documentary film. This resulted in his early works being recognized internationally. Currently, Liam is planning his next documentary scheduled for late 2020 and working as a video editor for the Nova Scotia Government. In the future, Liam hopes to continue his expansion in short films, videos and advertisements.
The process of approaching the music video for Hummingbird's Vice by Voodoo Sometimes was challenging, exciting and appropriate. Finding the perfect balance between narrative, abstract and performance-based styles was necessary to successfully capture the tone of the song; which expertly juggles all these elements. I hope you enjoy viewing this video and comparing the visuals to the lyrics. Thank you to the entire crew and band for their dedication to this project.
