This Santogold Video Is Not Brought To You By Bud Light Lime

The effortlessly breezy “Lights Out” is one of my favorite tracks on Santogold’s self-titled debut, and I haven’t gotten sick of it yet even though its presence in the commercial breaks of baseball games is near-constant. The above clip is pretty basic, with Santi White and her background dancers getting green-screened into increasingly eye-popping patterns. What I want to know is how the people behind the video got the green-screen effect to work on the backup dancers’ lips. Is this the real use for that green lipstick that I always see overflowing from the Wet N’ Wild counter? [Pitchfork.TV via MOKB]
