The gorgeous ebbs and flows of the song partnered with the rhymes of Blu push the boundaries for the possibilities for imagery. With the amazing space of Murphy&#8217;s Ranch practically in my back yard I was inspired to develop a post apocalyptic Adam and Eve story that again would play off of the themes of beauty and melancholy. Creating a more cinematic and filmic treatment allowed for collaboration with fellow artists to explore this post apocalyptic world where choosing life may mean choosing death.&#8221; &#8211; EmaLee Arroyo<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Director&#8217;s Note &#8211; &#8220;As a multi-media artist coming from a back ground in performance and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82119","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-videos"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.8 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Director&#039;s Note - &quot;As a multi-media artist coming from a back ground in performance and video art, the first time I heard L&#039;Orange&#039;s &quot;Need You&quot; I was struck with the songs dichotomy of beauty and melancholy.I wanted to create a world, a universe where this song could live and breathe to reveal and tease out\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"max-image-preview:large\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"author\" content=\"da2handz\"\/>\n\t<meta name=\"google-site-verification\" content=\"Ifre_vB77_wFNVhQXnoGsQmneX3D_8ReLIBjU_bbS0A\" \/>\n\t<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/video-lorange-ft-blu-need-you\/\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"generator\" content=\"All in One SEO (AIOSEO) 4.9.8\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Blackout Hip Hop\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Video: L\u2019Orange ft.
