This is the official music video for the song “All Over” by CRUISR. Directed by Chris Carboni, full credits below.
Ahh love... and heartache.. and chainsaws. The concept for this video was inspired by the central theme of the track - the inexplicable allure of getting your heart stomped in all the right ways. The clever simplicity of the lyrics combined with the instantly catchy rhythm of the song called for a narrative that could breeze by and connect just as effortlessly. So we decided to visualize the story through notable film romances - from the iconic to the obscure - represented through colorful, animated vignettes. A lot of the fun came in finding the right balance of love and chaos to represent such a volatile relationship. Echoing the idea of constantly cycling back and forth between these two extremes, each section seamlessly transitions into the next without any cuts.
