For our Music Edition, DREAM THE END produced and directed the music video for IN THE GRACE OF YOUR LOVE, the title track of New York City band THE RAPTURE‘s new album. Inspired by 1960′s French films and James Turrell light spaces, the shoot took place in a studio in Chelsea in NYC with Creative Director Melissa Jones and her partner Markus Griesshammer behind the camera. The lasers featured in the video were created by German laser artist Norbert Hoernchen.
