It’s funny how sepia tones will make anything look romantic, and the clip for Kurt Vile‘s “Baby’s Arms” is liable to bring back memories of teen romance. The Todd Cole-directed music video for Vile’s latest single off of “Smoke Ring For My Halo” highlights the small things that matter in life: bike riding, BBQs, illegally tagging a wall and, in this young couple’s case, making out. However, we would have never known that all this nostalgic footage was captured entirely on a Windows Phone. (The clip is part of the Windows Phone Me series, a collection of short film essays exploring the a day in the life of creative Windows Phone users.) Only if you were to go back and re-watch the close-ups of the skateboarders, would you be able to see any shaking. It’s remarkable how today’s high technology can be utilized to project such a simple idea.
