Get “The Return Of The Shadow“ here: BAND: We knew Markkus's talent as a video director and his enthusiasm, as we asked him to shoot the video for us, was so overwhelming that it was a pure pleasure to work with the professional like he is. The “Elvenking“ video enters to Tolkien's Middle-earth from multiple angles combining noticeable characters and scenes from Tolkien' written poetry. DIRECTOR’S WORD It is very rare to get an opportunity to write this kind of epic video, so I didn’t hesitate to say yes when Jyri messaged me if I would be interested in making it. Back in the days Battlelore’s “Storm of the Blades” was one of the first videos I directed so it was nice to unite again with the band. Director / Cinematographer / Editor / Script: Markku Kirves Light & grip (Band shoot): Italo Moncada, Lumi Manninen Light & grip (Story shoot): Miko Koskinen Make-up artist: Emma Räsänen
