PRODUCER, DIRECTOR, EDITOR
Fury in the Slaughterhouse
"Every Generation"
Collaborating on a music video with the celebrated visual artist, Doug Aitken.
Paul handled both the offline edit and online finishing for Fury in the Slaughterhouse’s music video, "Every Generation Got Its Own Disease":
"Back in the heyday of music videos, I worked on dozens in every capacity, but this project was especially memorable because of director Doug Aitken.
Doug’s vision transformed the American version of the original German video. He experimented with in-camera effects, including purposely threading 16mm film incorrectly to create a “flutter” effect in some shots. He encouraged creative experimentation in the edit, which I fully embraced.
The video became a hit on MTV. Cutting it on one of the first non-linear editing systems, the EMC2 (even before Avid), added an extra layer of technical novelty to the process. Working with Doug, who would go on to become a major visual artist exhibiting worldwide, made this an unforgettable project."
