Julia Jacklin’s prayer If I Had the Hand of God
While nothing about Australian singer-songwriter Julia Jacklin screams Las Vegas, it was precisely this stark contrast that made her choice for the visual setting of her new single, “If I Had The Hand Of God,” a masterful move.
The decision to shoot the music video in the heart of the Strip was a brilliant one, transforming the stark reality of the desert city into a lush, aesthetic landscape for her artistic vision.
Collaborator Nick Mckk captured this unique voyage, guiding Jacklin through an experience that spanned the glittering spectacle of the Sphere, the opulent ceilings of the Caesar’s Palace, the windswept desert hills surrounding the city, and the anonymous, shadowy hotel hallways. This cinematic journey captured plenty of the city’s most aesthetically arresting aspects.
Adding an extra layer of theatrical flair to the narrative, Jacklin occasionally embraced the drama of the setting, donning a showgirl headdress. This playful element paired perfectly with the mood of the song, creating a visual synergy that is both striking and wonderfully cohesive.
