The basic idea for the video was simple: as the concept for the CD/LP “Breakfast Epiphanies” used only type, the video for the single “Amourette” should be full of letters too.

For the shoot in the venerable Marlene Dietrich Hall in Potsdam’s Studio Babelsberg, we snipped more than 700 letters out of polystyrene, painted them pink, and built a circular construction of the entire song text around the band.

The video was a co-production with Crossing Pictures (director: Hagen Decker, camera: Lars Petersen); the making-of can be seen here.
