ERIN HILL: ELEANOR RIGBY
I’d wanted to work with Erin forever. So when she called—lukewarm about a video she’d just shot and edited, and desperate with a “Can you do something with this?”—I pounced. Thank you, Erin, for letting me tear it apart like a kid going wild with scissors and paper dolls. Here’s what came out of the chaos.
