# Vance Joy – Mess is Mine

Michael Shanks recently helped out with Visual Effects on this beautiful and quirky music video for Vance Joy’s debut album, [Dream Your Life Away](http://smarturl.it/DreamYourLifeAway), directed by the very talented [Luci Schroder](http://www.lucischroder.com). We first worked with Luci on a TVC she directed for The Big Issue back in 2009 – and it’s so nice to see she’s still kicking goals and creating wonderful art.

The clip was cut by our very good friend [Michael J. Lutman](http://www.lutmanfilms.com) and graded by the amazingly talented [Roslyn Di Sisto](http://www.roslyndisisto.com/) – the same awesome duo that worked on [Rocketman](./../portfolio/rocketman/).

Enjoy!
