My Work
The second collaboration between Ruby Mastrodimos and Long Neck, released alongside their sophomore album World's Strongest Dog.
Made at the start of the COVID-19 lockdown, this video captures how we attempt to maintain our relationships as they’re moved online and mitigated by screens. Sometimes that virtual disconnect feels chasmic. Still, we carry on trying: grasping at intimacy on video calls, reminding ourselves of better days, and hoping that we can forge a better society for each other through this.

Taking cues from everything that went right in the 80's, this music video for Sailor Boyfriend sees the band dealing with a bad case of stage fright until a mysterious stranger comes to the rescue. Shot on a micro-budget, the video is full of fun, poppy imagery to match the disco tune.

Taking inspiration from New Jersey's many urban legends, Mastrodimos partnered with the NJ-based indie band Long Neck to create a video for their single "Elizabeth." The result is a campy, four-and-a-half minute drive from hell. Honorable Mention at the Los Angeles Underground Film Festival.
