BHA+ Season 2, Episode 01: Interview with musician & music video director Maxwell Farrell - 2026-01-06

Musician and music video director Max Farrell spent almost 8 years gathering footage for what became a roughly half-hour short film that supports the release of Blessings Infinity’s latest album, Season One.

 

With a specific interest in experimental imagery, he crafted the film’s sections into meticulously layered collages of landscapes wild, cultivated, and urban, and although the final work is in HD, for the limited VHS edition, he recomposed the widescreen footage to suit the standard 4:3 ratio of a CRT monitor – the optimum way to enjoy VHS.

 

 

 

 

Whether you prefer to sample Season One or any of Farrell’s video work before or after the podcast is up to you; you can listen to our conversation as an audio-only podcast via Libsyn, or as a visually enhanced version on YouTube.

 

In addition to the current Editor's Blog at Big Head Amusements, I’ll have a separate blog about creating the visuals for the YouTube version, as well as the workflow used to transfer digital to analogue tape, but here are the necessary links to Farrell’s work:
