'Dream You Up' is the 4th single from Australian duo PLGRMS
The official animated music video uses the offbeat pop track's peaceful but mysteriously unnerving tone to create an abstract visual journey and a compelling narrative.
A dreaming woman finds herself confronted by a strange and unsettling masked figure.
Against her better judgement, she is enticed deeper into the dream.
"When there’s mystery behind something or someone, it’s so interesting and intriguing.
By nature we just can't help ourselves and want to find out what it is.
It's the anticipation and the thrill of what we don't understand." - PLGRMS

"Working with Stephen Smith (of Wobblylobster in the UK) has been great. He has really captured the mood of the song visually, taking the viewer on an abstract journey where make-believe is reality.”

The figure is a dream / nightmare, god-like creature.
Who is the environment that is ever-changing, manipulating the woman's disorientating path.

Themes that run under this video include psychological anxieties towards oneself, where the figure represents these anxieties with it's restriction and control over the female character.
