Il regista e co-fondatore di Prettybird, Paul Hunter, dirige il videoclip di Fireflies, ultimo singolo di John Legend estratto dal suo nuovo album Muse, in uscita il prossimo 23 ottobre. Il brano, scritto insieme a Pharrell Williams, che ha prodotto l’intero album, viene tradotto in un bianco e nero programmatico: il video affianca la performance ultraelegante – piano, voce e orchestra, con John Legend che, in smoking bianco, è una “candle in the dark” (come recitano le lyrics) – a una manciata di quadri che raccontano una storia di degrado sociale e violenza, facendo anche qui eco al testo.
