Emerging French animator and Motion Design award winner Alice Bibette reveals the electrifying official video for Nubiyan Twist & Nile Rodgers track ‘Lights Out’. In keeping with the heady, sun-drenched sound of Nubiyan Twist's latest album ‘Find Your Flame’, Alice examines the concept of igniting your true self in this vibrant, textural story following the life cycle of a diminished flame that finally ignites, taking human form as this beautifully creative video unfolds.
The narrative follows the split reality of a hostile vs. playful world, as we see our protagonist navigate its journey to true freedom, showing the beauty in the little things, the power of hope, and the growth we experience despite hostility. Having previously been recognised in publications such as It's Nice That for her unique and artistic skill set, Alice previously specialised in bringing to life urgent social and political topics, making this their debut music video.
Alice explains, “My starting point were the lyrics which express two voices one can have in one's mind: a motivated invincible feeling opposed to a less confident, low-esteemed one. It’s these mood fluctuations which can be triggered by our surroundings/society but also ourselves that I wanted to translate into a visual journey. I love that the song expresses both feelings in such an electric and uplifting way. I think that’s why the song is so smart, talking about real feelings both positive and negative in a light and fun way. My goal was to translate that. I wanted to create an “eye candy”: whichever world you're in, it’s part of the journey and it’s great. Along the creative journey, I discovered my own hidden worlds and my craft evolved so I cannot thank Nubiyan Twist enough for this opportunity and their trust. It was wonderful working with such an inspiring band.”
