Music video

Before the creation of the video, a contest in collaboration with Microsoft Lumia was held, with the prize being the chance to be a crew member of the music video production.[6] The winners were Wlodek Markowicz and Karol Paciorek from "Lekko Stronniczy".[7] The music video,[1] which was released on March 11, 2015, was made in collaboration with Microsoft, Wlodek Markowicz and Karol Paciorek and featured Microsoft Lumia phones, which were used for the video's bullet time effect,[8] a bus driver singing to the song and dancing to it with others (including Clean Bandit), intermixed with clips of Clean Bandit and a dance group dancing to the song (where the bullet time effect was used). The video was directed by Katharine Cowell[9] and has more than 2 million views as of 7 April 2015.
