With “Dirty Night Clown,” Chris Garneau crafted a vivid and textured song. Director Ryan Gibeau took note of this. And, when he agreed to lens a video for the track, it was with some specific ideas in mind.

“The music created such vivid visuals and Chris was very open to hearing my interpretation for the video. I wanted Chris in the video, but rather than in person, I wanted a puppet representation of him instead. He agreed and we were able to create a compelling, all puppet, story.” said Gibeau.

The entire process of finding the right puppeteer and then filming the video took upwards of two months. But, the final product is quite wonderful.
