Coldplay “Magic”
Posted January 14th, 2015
Last Spring, I was asked to play the role of a magician on a music video for the band ColdPlay. I love Coldplay and this album is amazing!! The song is “Magic” from their latest album titled Coldplay: Live Ghost Stories 2014 which was just released in December. I was thrilled to work with Chris Martin, Zhang Ziyi, and the director, Jonas Akerlund on this director’s cut. The set was amazing; a completely reconstructed 1800’s circus in downtown Los Angeles near Chinatown. I love how it was shot in black and white! The tricks which were great fun to learn how to perform, and my costume, well, it was fabulous! The hair and make-up department on the set did an amazing job turning me into an older version of Chris Martin’s character. Enjoy the DVD and remember, “Always believe in magic!”…
