The Chainsmokers // Ways & Means

It's not every day we get to spend the day at our studio rental space with the parents of a Grammy Award winning artist. The folks at Ways & Means Productions teamed up with Spotify to shoot a promo for EDM-Pop duo, The Chainsmokers brand new album, with a little help from  very special guests...their moms! The set was fairly straightforward featuring an interview style approach, keeping the focus on the mothers and the box of "memories" that was used on the cover of their album. The lighting was minimal and diffused in a way that made you feel like you were inside your childhood bedroom, much like the theme of the album. By the end of the spot our Brooklyn soundstage ignited with an explosion of confetti in celebration of the new release. Take a look here.
