Behind The Scenes: Moniker - Hindsight (Official Video)

Hard rock band Moniker took over a secret Vancouver venue to shoot their latest music video—a gritty, high-energy visual for their newest single that pulses with raw emotion and thunderous sound. Produced by the ever-innovative Jade Weekes, the video dives deep into themes of regret, resilience, and reckoning with the past.

 

The Setting:

 

Filmed in 1 furious day in a converted industrial secret venue in Vancouver, the city’s rough edges played the perfect backdrop for Hindsight’s aggressive riffs and haunting lyrics. Dimly lit under a full lighting rig, the strings ran red hot.

The Vision:

Jade Weekes pushed for a cinematic look that matched the track's emotional weight. Drawing inspiration from 90s grunge visuals and noir thrillers, she aimed to capture both the beauty and brutality of personal transformation. Her direction focused heavily on performance shots, with fast cuts, slow-motion crashes, and intimate close-ups that put the viewer face to face with the band’s raw intensity.

The Energy:

Band members pushed their limits during the performance sequences. Lead vocalist Jonny, known for his gritty delivery, performed take after take, grounded in the emotion. The rest of the band locked in tightly, feeding off each other’s energy, with guitars swinging and drumsticks flying—no stunt doubles here.

Final Touches:

Post-production was handled by Jade Weekes, with a focus on color grading that highlighted deep blues, red, and bursts of crimson. The final result is a video that feels as heavy as the track itself—unfiltered, relentless, and unforgettable.
