SMI begins production on Acid Girls-“Lightworks” Music Video

Steven Ilous has been hard at work, preparing to direct a big budget project in Sweden after the holiday season. For now, he has returned home to L.A. where he plans to hit the ground running on his next big project, directing the Acid Girls “Lightworks” music video.

“I take the approach that if you’re going to do it, do it right. It probably stems from my feature film background, or the part-time perfectionist in me. All in know is that I’m just excited to be doing what I love and working with incredibly talented people.” said Steven in a recent interview.

This approach seems to be paying off, as his last music video “Toxic is Dead” was featured on AOL, Spinner, Myspace Music, Daily Swarm and NME.com. The French electro artist, Toxic Avenger, found his music video next to the likes of Jay-Z, Robbie Williams, Vitalic and Fever Ray.

Toyota Scion has signed on to sponsor Steven’s next directorial venture, along with Jamaica Cakes - L.A.’s up and coming elegant cake and pastry shop - for this high concept video.

“Toxic is Dead” Music Video featured on R.fm

Our new friends over at R.fm have featured the “Toxic is Dead” Music Video, I directed earlier this year. The Toxic Video is wedged between some amazing artists like Uffie, Air, Fever Ray, and Vitalic. This is truly an honor as they are known for being very selective.

Here is a quote from their About section on their site:

“We are collectors of carefully selected club music recordings from around the world and what we consider to be the best music videos on the planet. “

Thanks to R.fm and thanks for all the comments.
