African Hip Hop

Producing an African Hip Hop music video has proven to be an exciting adventure for our production team in Las Vegas. The project sprung into action in the summer of 2015, when Peeshaun, one half of the talented Nigerian Afro hip hop duo, Skuki, reached out to our acclaimed music video producer, Ro Leon.

Peeshaun came prepared with a list of desires for the video; customary wants included cars, lively locations, and models. However, one peculiar request stood out – the use of newly-released hoverboards, notwithstanding their notoriety at the time for catching fire. Fortunately, no such incidents occurred during our shoot.

The project’s primary aim was to construct a music video that resonates with Skuki’s experiences in Las Vegas, particularly for their new single, “Lori Standing.” We filmed a significant portion of the video within the chic environs of the Rumor Boutique Hotel, capturing vibrant scenes at the pool and lounge parties. To fully encapsulate the Las Vegas experience, we filmed Skuki cruising down the Strip in a customized Corvette, expertly using multiple vehicles and car mounts for this purpose. The hoverboards became the center of attraction as we filmed the duo effortlessly maneuvering through crowds. Equally fascinating was our rooftop performance shot, offering a panoramic view of the Strip.

The music video was skilfully produced by Ro Leon and directed by Justin McAleece. Ian McAleece brilliantly took the reins of the process as the director of photography wielding the powerful Red Epic Dragon camera. Our dedicated Las Vegas team was completed by Lance Caniloa, our key grip, and Chase Wilson, our reliable production assistant.

Following the filming and shooting, our competent post-production department assembled the footage of the African Hip Hop Music Video. Responsible for color correction, we sent the final cut to Skuki. The artists then proceeded to incorporate additional Las Vegas stock footage and a performance from another artist, completing the masterpiece that was “Lori Standing”.
