Powder "New Tribe"

Synopsis

New Tribe was created as a music video for Powder, a Tokyo based dance music producer and DJ. This video is supposedly based on her life story as a double-life individual : corporate employee in day, working musician at night —, and the video focuses on the exact moment when she is sitting in the office chair melancholically, trying to make up her mind to ‘continue’ or ‘quit’ her job, holding the pre-made resignation letter. The scenery zooms into her mind and visualizes the process of her decision-making as an imaginary fish market, handling freshly caught fishes along with numerous amounts of resignation letter been separated professionally to where it should go.
