“PERDIDA EN TU JUEGO” is an ambitious music video project directed and edited by Palmer Wells for Mercedes Gala ft. Dani D., released in late February 2024. Shot by Samuel Mitchell, with Liam Podos serving as the gaffer, the video benefited from equipment exclusively provided by Trustfall Studios, including both the camera and lighting packages — and Muhil Vaseekaran added the final touches with his expert color grading. The video features a dynamic range of settings, with stunning choreography by Bella Falls, and showcases the versatility of various lens offers at Trustfall Studios—from the IRIX Cinema Lens Kit to the Sony GM Lens Kit—to highlight the contrasting environments seen within the video. Palmer Wells envisioned the video’s concept around the theme of being “lost in someone’s game,” and brought this video to life through collaborating on inventive camera work, movement, and transitions with Samuel Mitchell.
