Towkio - Eyes

Savemoney representative Towkio, once known as Tokyo Shawn, is currently putting the final touches on his proper debut release, .Wav Theory. In promotion, he pairs up with director [LL] to unveil a new track entitled “Eyes,” along with a very creative visual complement. Watch the video above, and read what Towkio told Complex, who premiered the video earlier today, about how they made the video happen down below.

We created a reflection pond, used insulation foam to act as the border to hold water, sprayed the board with flex seal so it wouldn’t warp, filled the board with water and shot the video in the water using coffee cream to give the “cloud” effect,” Towkio says. “We shot the video in water then flipped video in post so it appeared right side up—something people do in photos but has yet to be done in video). There are no special effects in the video, all shots are real life.
