Just because.
All by myself from Richard Dunn on Vimeo.
From Gawker:
Caught overnight at Las Vegas’ McCarran Airport with practically no one else around, Richard Dunn could have taken a cab back to the strip and partied until his flight in the morning. Instead, he whipped out his iPhone and made this gloriously cheesy music video for Celine Dion’s 1996 cover of “All By Myself.”
And he really did make it all by himself, with an ingenious repurposing of the airport’s escalators and moving walkways.
“I had a person behind a ticket counter give me a roll of luggage tape before she left. I then used a wheel chair that had a tall pole on the back of it and taped my iPhone to that. Then I would put it on the moving walkway for a dolly shot. I also used the extended handle on my computer bag and taped the iPhone to my handle. I would tuck different stuff under the bag to get the right angle. For the escalator shot I had to sprint up the steps after I got my shot so the computer bag didn’t hit the top and fall back down. Quite fun!”
That’s all pretty clever, but it was recreating the Flashdance scene using a water bottle that really put the video over the top.
