  • One continuous shot following graffiti writer Sofles on a wander through Melbourne.
    This video was made possible to an amazing group of people, who came together to help us celebrate and pay homage to the Collingwood and Fitzroy area of Melbourne. Our goal was to create one continuous drone shot, captured in one take. The amazing team from Swarm UAV pulled it off.
    Here you have the result, along with words by the brilliant poet and author Omar Musa.
    Original soundtrack by Erin McKimm.
    Thanks to all the artists who came down to be a part of this video, the support team of assistants, Easey's, Everfresh Studio and everyone else who makes Collingwood such an amazing place.
    Directed by Selina Miles selinamiles.com
    Featuring Sofles sofles.com
    Aerial Cinematography by Swarm UAV swarmuav.com.au
    Music by Erin McKimm erinmckimm.com/
    Spoken Word by Omar Musa omarmusaqbn/

    Drones are taking cinematography into a new era. It used to take entire teams, cranes, and a lot of money to get these type of shots until now. The transition shot from street level, to boom, to overhead, in one clean shot with no edit...that used to take three camera teams, a crane, a helicopter/pilot, and at least three edits to put this shot together.

    Graffiti is an artful of letters in light, colorful skinz, background, infinite, wildstyle, arrows between spaces in through sicodelick pastels, Top to bottom whole cars, roof tops ,artful infusion to create a wonder of your own imagination, The scent of the spray , And the wall explodes with color, Graffiti all over the world here to stay, New York City and the beginning of it all. Inspirational ART.

    You remember when we first came to the city don't you?
    We all found ourselves here
    Searching for that secret ingredient,
    That hidden thing we hoped might turn gutter into gold,
    Base into noble.
    Weak limbs and wavering voices into something everlasting.
    A story Bigger Than Us.
    You remember don't you?
    We went racing down the streets together
    Like hot metal, Mercury, Quicksilver
    All of us bucket bomb back chatters,
    Bloody face baby ballers,
    King makers and street corner chemists,
    School of Hard Knocks academics,
    Nerd boys, sick cunts, 3AM romantics or so-called saints.
    You remember don’t you?
    The streets confused us,
    Followed us,
    Led us,
    Swallowed us,
    Spit us out,
    Clever old tricksters.
    Just when we thought we knew them,
    They rolled themselves up again.
    Unscrolled the next day,
    Different arrangements of letters and light.
    Letters and light.
    Letters and light.
    This was the way our lives were spent.
    Colours named precisely,
    Precisely because they were unnameable
    Spectrums and schemes conjured out of wreckless dreamings
    On canvas and brick,
    The walls of skin and the drapery of hair.
    We, the hunters,
    The chasers,
    The chased,
    With P-plate badges
    Leaping over train station gates
    We screamed our stories to the city
    Saying ‘Answer me, answer me!’
    Becoming tired and lonely
    Hungry, naked and terrified
    Spinning
    Spinning like a broken compass
    Spinning
    I remember when i first met you
    You were shaking up vials and cans.
    Dripping words into cylinders and test tubes,
    Purifying the fiendish dirty elements,
    Speaking rhymitchally in secret syphers
    Round table meeting of characters with far-fetched visions
    Loves
    Loathings and unmapped paths
    I learned to wash my hands and feet in the spaces between things
    Memories,
    Missions,
    Landmarks,
    Streets,
    Bodies,
    Heartbreaks,
    After all these years,
    I still call your name.
    Racing again like a thing conjured from fire,
    Wondering if you hear me saying all the things I meant to, like,
    Like, if I couldn't trust me,
    Then how could i trust you?
    I’ve faced to many polite brush offs and ‘fuck yous’.
    Too many cocaine sunrises that pulse like a quantise drum.
    Too many journalists with bloody shirt fronts and airports that blur into one.
    Cities where the bird of paradise plumes in a syringe
    And the pills fall like fresh rain.
    The ferocity of a boy who writes a eulogy for the father who still lives.
    Of the flag with no land,
    The land with no flag.
    The border that’s had its back broken again,
    And again and again.
    The ferocity of a last kiss,
    I meant to say it all.
    I meant to remind you of the thing that flowed beneath
    And what to call it.
    That thing, blood thing,
    That alchemy.
    That thing that dervish dances between us.
    That pushes and pulls,
    Making a continuum of all that is.
    That induces us into some kind of trance,
    Some holy dance.
    So call it into being.
    Call it alchemy.
    When the lowest moment becomes the most glorious harmony.
    When the scene is unseen.
    When the morning star illuminates a waking dream.
    The homeless man takes soda cans, bent spoons and empty chip packets
    and creates a mosaic.
    When driftwood takes the shape of forces hurtling down a beach
    When you pluck the spearhead from your chest
    And use it to inscribe love letters in long Taro leaf.
    When that little girl made paddle pop stick propellers
    To send a wish flicker flame skyward.
    When that baby left on the steps becomes a Statesman.
    When a beat-head dances those fingers over the pads,
    Chopping the sample just right.
    When you’re with your fam,
    Freestyling in a vacant lot.
    Blue stoned dust and voice
    And the tip of that J turns into a burning branch to put out the eye of the cyclops.
    They call it alchemy.
    When the light shon exactly behind your hair,
    Each strand incan-destined to something so rare
    And i promised.
    I strung 60 of my heartbeats into a necklace for you.
    One for every breath we take in a minute.
    That moment lasted less than a second,
    But at least we dwelled in it.
    We call it alchemy.
    When we call forth all our courage.
    Courage enough to learn.
    Courage enough to endure.
    Courage enough when the faceless shows its golden face and the final bell tolls
    And we walk arm in arm
    With every person we’ve ever met
    Over the last,
    Lamplit,
    Mile.
