tUnE-yArDs’ Merrill Garbus returned with a colorful and crazy video for “Real Thing”.
Directed by Tom Jobbins, the video combines stop motion animation and live action shots for a visual that features creepy, dancing mannequins and lots of colors. Jobbins said, “Hearing the song made me think of bright patterns and dancing hands! With these initial thoughts in my mind and the song on repeat I envisaged a madcap story about three plastic sisters and an all-singing, all-dancing Merrill,” he says.
