Object & Animal’s Lucy Sandler Directs the Latest Music Video for Ill Peach

Object & Animal’s director Lucy Sandler of Sportscar directs the latest music video for Ill Peach.

Continuing her ongoing creative partnership with indie artist Ill Peach, director Lucy Sandler turns her lens to an emotive performance by singer Jess Corazza.

Shot on grainy 16mm by DP Hayden Mason - the film is a slow burn that captures the nuance and surprising beauty of an emotional spiral. Sandler presents a character with no context, but allows the viewers to project their own narrative through a deeply relatable moment.

In Lucy’s own words, “Heavyweight felt like a big responsibility because it felt like my heart, and I knew it was Jess’s too. It was the question of how to spin agony, how to make it gorgeous. How to visually personify accepting that we can’t turn our backs on our intensity, our innate ability to live inside every feeling. For me it was just about capturing something honest - the coexistence of unbearable pain and the need for lightness. And being ok with them living together in harmony and that being the truth.”
