Em Cooper worked with Universal Music and Apple Corps to direct the music video for "I'm Only Sleeping' as part of the special edition release of Revolver.
Over 1,300 individual oil paintings were combined to create the animation, which flows dreamlike through the song exploring the space between consciousness and sleep. Em was eager to undertake the challenge of the video as she related to the meaning in the lyrics, as she frequently uses her skills to evoke thought or convey inner experiences.
