Here is one of my favorite sequences from the “Safe” video. The goal here was to show the progression of a pregnancy from the first to the final month in a single continuous shot. @donbenjamin plays the lead who begins ecstatic about their pregnancy but eventually neglects @iamcardib near the end of her final trimester. To pull this off I worked with our DP @nykallen on designing a one-take, and @joey_sperber stitched the multiple setups together seamlessly so the story could unfold without a visible cut.
