JB by Merri Cyr
While on assignment photographing Jeff Buckley in 1994 & 95, I had also brought along my Hi 8 video camera. I edited some of the footage together in 2001, four years after Jeff died. Some clips I shot back then were used by Columbia Records in the posthumous video "Forget Her"
Merri Cyr made these films for Columbia Records and collaborated with Jeff Buckley on his video Last Goodbye. Cinematographer Ellen Kuras worked on the 16mm cinematography. Merri Cyr directed and edited these sequences, which were influenced by film maker Jean Cocteau. Thank you to Billy Basinski from Arcadia Studios in Williamsburg Brooklyn for providing such an amazing location.
