06 VISIT AUSTIN — THE SOUNDS OF AUSTIN

From nightlife to nature and award-winning dining to honky-tonks, Austin is one of the most dynamic cities in the world. We tried to capture this eclecticism through a stylistically diverse mashup of local musicians and the sounds of Austin’s most iconic places. Visually, we used a mix of digital and film footage to blend the nostalgic and the now. All of this forms the rhythm and soul of our city - the sound of Austin.
