The photographer discusses the cinematic road trip project that accompanies Saint Etienne’s new album, ‘I’ve Been Trying To Tell You’.
What’s the significance of the particular towns and cities you chose to include in the"strange roadtrip" you embarked on for the film?
The idea was always to make a video about Britain. Or at least some places around the UK. I’ve always loved factories, so we filmed in Southampton and Ferrybridge and Scunthorpe and then Grangemouth in Scotland, which is an amazing factory. It almost looks like something out of a. I wanted them to look beautiful. So we were relying on nice weather when we shot them. The road trip was a way to link all these places. We shot in lots of towns from Sheffield to London to Blackpool to Portmeirion.
Even though Saint Etienne are considered a quintessential British band, I’ve always thought their music was also very international. A lot of their music is influenced by European cinema, so when we shot at Marble Arch in London, I thought it might be interesting if Hannah got in the fountain there, like in. The fountain is certainly not the Trevi Fountain, but there was something lovely about it. It doesn’t even look like London. The fountain looks like it should be in a small municipal town.
I love the idea of teenage boredom now seeming idyllic. If you could, would you want to shake your teenage self and tell him to appreciate it while it lasts? Well, there’s a lot you wish you knew then, that you know now. Haha, it’s something that everyone says and thinks about. I think I’d tell myself not to worry and enjoy those years and moments more. I’ve Been Trying To Tell You, the film, premieres 3 September as part of a weekend of screenings and Q&As at
