A Visual Journey
in Eleven Acts
Experience DRM's most ambitious project to date. After the success of our video for "I Can Barely Breathe" the band Manchester Orchestra returned to have us create a visual complemement for every track on their new album. Armed with boxes of Super8, creative freedom and the most ridiculously tight production schedule ever, we produced a music video + film divided into eleven parts over the course of four months. The videos have been featured on MTV, The Huffington Post, Paste Magazine, AP, and Apple's QuickTime Gallery.
A look back at the projects that J & Clay pursued before DRM.

CLIENT: RE:UP Magazine & SCION
RE:UP Magazine approached DRM to be a part of their artistic contribution for SCION's 2009 EASY 10 film festival.
"Start with a cardboard box and end with the box," they said, "the rest is up to you." Five other creative studios from around the country were given this mandate as well and together our collective works form an "exquisite corpse" where one piece leads to another. This is our apocalyptic vision.
BEHIND THE SCENES:
2008 World Series show open
CLIENT: FOX SPORTS
1 message of hope + 2 presidential nominees x 3 days for design & animation = a chance in a lifetime.
Presidential rivals John McCain and Barack Obama united to help narrate an opening to the World Series telecast highlighting how baseball — America's pastime — has drawn the country together in challenging times. Academy Award winning actor Michael Douglas provides the lead narration.
Manchester Orchestra "I can barely breathe"
CLIENT: SONY BMG // SADDLE BACK
BEHIND THE SCENES:
"With no brief or script from the client and only a few references from the band about the origin of the song, the team at DestroyRockMusic in Hollywood were free to run wild. Director Clay Lipsky admits, “Multiple ideas came together to form the final direction. Ultimately we pitched a modern, dark spin on the Wizard of OZ that followed one girl’s journey back home to rediscover her roots.” With three days of live action lensing in RAW format on the RED camera (two in the desert, one in a poppy field in full bloom), plus greenscreen for macro elements combined with a massive library of textures, animations and HD stock, data management quickly became a major bottleneck. All of it was hammered into place over the course of two weeks in editing and post-production." - STASH Magazine

2008 MLB All-Star Red Carpet Parade Tease CLIENT: FOX SPORTS
BEHIND THE SCENES:
The directing duo was approached to design a final farewell for Yankee Stadium. This piece played before the 2008 MLB All-Star Game Red Carpet Parade in NYC and is narrated by the one and only James Earl Jones. Much "force" was needed for this job because once the team got back from shooting in New York, they only had 1 week to complete post-production for the two minute spot.
Travis Barker & DJ AM "FOX NFL REMIX"
CLIENT: FOX SPORTS
BEHIND THE SCENES:
FOX Sports wanted to start SuperBowl XLII with a bang, so they enlisted Travis Barker & DJ AM to re-mix the iconic NFL on FOX theme song. Bognacki & Lipsky visualized the track with a graphic onslaught fitting for these Hollywood personalities. With only one week until SuperBowl Sunday, the DRM team put in many a late night to take their vision to the masses for a record setting television audience of 97.5 million viewers (making it the most-watched Super Bowl ever and second biggest event in American television history).
