Hey Woman - Space Panther.

“Best Music Video”

★★★★

A fun rollercoaster of a video that matches the energy of the music perfectly.”

A young woman’s meteoric rise to glam rock stardom is not what it seems…

Comic book artist and animator Megan Gales takes us on an exciting ride through the eyes of an emerging glam rock superstar with ‘Hey Woman’ from Space Panther. Gale has a certain flare and style for animation that’s unique and captivating, making this is superb music video that suits the tone of the music perfectly. The hand drawn style to the animation has that traditional technique to it that’s wonderful to see and makes the video truly memorable.

The animation has a really good pace to it that fits with the flow of the music well, making this the ideal direction for the video. Both the music and animation compliment each other and work hand in hand. The sketched animation style has an 80s/90s quality to it that unfortunately you don’t see today. It gives the video a charm and comedic quality to it that’s endearing and fun. The colour palette used is bright and impacting, perfect for recreating a glam rock look fitting for the track. Considering the animation was handled by Gale herself, it’s especially impressive to see such creativity from a single filmmaker.

The concept of the story is also a great choice for the track. We’re not sure if the story was dictated by the lyrics but it’s certainly fitting and helps make this a stand out music video that deserves plenty of praise. The ending scene is what ties everything together and gives the video meaning which will certainly get smiles from audiences.

This music video will remind older audiences of some of their favourite rock videos from the 80s and inspire younger audiences at the same time. It’s a fun rollercoaster of a video that matches the energy of the music perfectly…
