Mars Motel “Coming Up for Air”

Director's Notes Premiere

“The directorial debut of New York based Cinematographer Jordan Parrott – who lensed previous DN picks Swim, It’s Been Too Long and A Taco Told in Texas – Coming up for Air for Brooklyn dream rock band Mars Motel brings us eye to transfixing eye with an android who deeply yearns to become human. A relatable contemplation of the universal desire for connection, particularly for those of us outside the glass looking in, DN asked Parrott to share how he employed a mixture of practical effects and custom made rigs for this sci-fi spin on the Pinocchio fable.”
