Smoke & Mirrors in conjunction with London-based One of Us and Stranger, just completed the Flame and color-grading work on a unique Jon Glazer-directed music video for alt-rock supergroup The Dead Weather.

Treat Me Like Your Mother features Jack White and Alison Mosshart of The Kills (Mosshart is a member of Dead Weather) colliding in a ferocious and surreal duel with automatic weapons. The face-off is set in a dusty field bordering a gaudy suburban housing tract, where the duo unloads their clips in a relentless onslaught that complements the music's powerful cadence. Despite skewering one another with countless bullets, both walk away as the video fades.

Smoke & Mirrors chipped in with many of the effects for the firing and impact of the weapons, including bullet hits, ground hits, and muzzle flashes. Color grading was by Mark Horrobin (Smoke & Mirrors London) while New York had Sean Broughton, Nic Seresin and Philip Akka lead the S&M effects with Tony Lawrence nodding it via S&M London.
