In anticipation of the 2012 Grammy Awards, for which Mumford & Sons received four nominations for their song “The Cave,” here are a few behind-the-scenes shots taken during the filming of the music video in Goa, India. Directed by Fred & Nick, here are some notes from the shoot:
An early wake up call again and a full strategy planned out to be able to completely finish the Mumford & Sons music video before sunset.
We had managed to source only three musicians to be part of the wedding band at short notice, so, after a lot of begging and pleading, one of our camera attendants reluctantly gave in to being in front of the camera rather than behind it. The costumes (along with the Mumford boys’ suits) had been flown down from Mumbai and managed to reach us very late the night before, but thankfully on time for the shoot.
After shooting the initial bit where Winston (after diligently rehearsing) speaks to the wedding band in Hindi, the crew was split into two.
One team set off to shoot the Mumford boys on their scooters singing the song in sync. Kudos to Winston for learning how to ride a scooter only 15 minutes before the shoot began! What’s really cool about this part of the video, if you notice, is that the band is actually moving in slight slow motion but singing in sync. For this to happen, the song that was being played on the play back was a speeded up version. So the band is actually singing the song at a faster pace. This works because when you slow the video down in post, the sync becomes the correct speed of the original song. It also looks quite awesome.
The second unit stayed with the wedding band and after giving them a few hours to rehearsal, they were ready to be shot performing the song – which, they did quite brilliantly. Fred was jumping in excitement at the ease with which the ‘new’ Mumford & Sons’ were able to slip into the roles of Marcus, Ted, Ben and Winston.
Meanwhile, the original Mumford & Sons made their way back to the second unit and watched in amusement as the wedding band performed their song. After a standing ovation, we shot the end of the video where the instruments were returned to their rightful owners – just in time for sunset.
