Cam Murdoch: "Revival" (Video)

  Virginia's Cam Murdoch and director, Dawit N.M. team up for one mind f*ck of a video, “Revival”. Set to the backdrop of domestic violence, black and white, plus neon lights, "Revival" captures your attention, while making you feel happy for the protagonist getting out of an abusive relationship, until you discover her ultimate fate at the end.The introspective track itself is "set to Cam’s trademark proto-rhythmic production," as he thinks on loneliness and how he'll be remembered when it's his time to go. Cam and Dawit share their motive behind making the video below: “I wanted to express the feeling that life is incomplete without death and that we are looking to feel whole in life but may not get there in one life time. I tried to exemplify that my death could be a cause for mourning for the things I’ve left behind but also a cause for celebrating that I am freed from this prison of living. The duality of life and death.” - Cam Murdoch“My main motive for making this film was to spread awareness of domestic abuse. I wanted to show the drastic consequences and how common it is to be in an abusive relationship. With the use of two different styles of film aesthetic, colorful and black & white, I wanted to show how dull life is when one is in a relationship and how colorful and full of life it could be once one gets out of one. Unfortunately, for the girl in the film, she got out of it the worst possible way, by death.” - Dawit N.M.
