Juliette & The Licks – ‘Hot Kiss’ – Director Steve Glashier

Our corporate video! After all the fighting we’d had with other videos we thought ‘let’s just give them what they want’ with this one. We planned it all out, story boarded it, did an animatic… we were really methodical. Anyway, I met Juliette on a Sunday and it was one of those occasions when you instantly click with someone. She just really wanted to do the video, so we started filming the following Sunday. They’d been supporting the Foo Fighters in Hyde park the night before so no one got to bed anytime before 4am. There were some bleary eyes come the following morning but it all went fairly smoothly. She was a bit troublesome at times so I told her to shut the fuck up and get on with it: people don’t talk to Juliette like that ever, but she responded really well and played it perfectly.

Fans on tour later that year , the headdress had become tour merch.
