Sensational Ghanaian music group Rana has made use of a warehouse
abandoned for several years to achieve what has been described as a great-picture
and art-direction music video for the group’s hit single, ‘Mr. Cupid’, produced
by Imajin Records.
The video is scheduled for its first TV premiere on Saturday, June 30 on
4syte TV.
But ahead of the anticipated premiere, industry players who have seen
the video are hailing the video production team for a good work done,
especially with the choice of location.
The video was partly shot at a scruffy desert location in Kintampo and
an abandoned warehouse in Kumasi.
The video production team spent weeks on the set to make sure they
achieved the right images, effects and setting they wanted. Hence they had to
deal with snakes and rodents.
The concept of the video starts with all three members of Rana descending
from the skies onto a desert and entering a village where they picked their
costumes from a drying-line.
In the next scene, they enter a warehouse packed with people on
motorbikes waiting for the ‘cupid’ action. After hot performances, they finally
disappear in the tail end of the video.
There were interesting appearances in the video by top actresses Nana
Ama Mcbrown, Gloria Sarfo and musician Diamond.
In terms of picture quality, lightening, location and performance, the
video stands tall among many others on Ghana’s music video scene. Special
effects and arts direction are worth writing home about.
The choreography is off the chain. Rana took the music video to the next
level as it can compete with any video internationally. It was directed by Nick
Baeta of Jenirex Multimedia Consult, Kumasi.
It is expected to be premiered on other big and international platforms
after Saturday’s premiere on 4syte TV.
