Martin De Thurah: a director to Watch

Martin De Thurah is a Danish music video, commercial and short film director. He is represented by production company Academy. Here, i post a short film trailer called “we who stayed behind”, a music video by norwegian band “Carparc North” and a brilliant ad for IKEA. These three pieces are surely some of the most interesting stuff  i’ve seen lately. There is something about this director that make him unique. The “north countries” color pallete, the casting, the editing, his rythm, his obsesion with kids, the inherent rebelliousness of his videos, i think all have to do with a rising “north countries” creativity and ofcourse his undoubted talent to shoot powerfull images. We could take the Carpark north music video and use it untouched, as a spot for a fashion brand with a new kids clothing line.
