The Opportunity

A Building Falls. Once.

On April 12, 2026, a building in Brickell Key, Miami will be demolished by controlled implosion. The event lasts approximately 20 seconds. It will never happen again.

This is the centerpiece of the "Ballerina Flats" music video for Deer Park — an artist with press in The Fader, Pitchfork, Stereogum, and The Guardian. The concept is elemental: an artist performing on a boat at sunrise as a building collapses behind them. The footage loops, the smoke settles, the song plays.

The production requires a coordinated multi-cam shoot from three positions, a full day of performance coverage, and a deliberate post-production pipeline that prioritizes cinematic quality and editorial restraint.
