“Hundred Acres-Noname” by Daren Rabinovitch

Hundred Acres is a music video starring Noname (aka Fatimah Nyeema Warner), directed by Daren Rabinovitch of Encyclopedia Pictura. It features prosthetic animal transformations, joyful live-action cartoon theatricality, and elaborate character design, with dance by LA choreographer Mike Tyus. In-camera effects and hand-made costumes come together to create a unique, magical realism on the streets of Los Angeles.

FROM THE DIRECTOR

“Noname embodies many contradictory feelings at once. She’s playful and serious, concrete and surreal, political and personal, earnest and ironic. These contrasts are at the heart of our video. We wanted to make something that could be lowkey yet ecstatic, mundane yet phantasmagorical.”

-Daren Rabinovitch
