Fun fact: Founded in 1979, L.A. Eyeworks was the first independent house of optical design in Los Angeles. In honor of their longtime love affair with the City of Angels, the iconic eyewear brand teamed up with whimsical filmmaker Molly Schiot to highlight three sites that define West Coast culture: the beach, the city, the desert.
Each video features classic LA scenes captured through the frames of L.A. Eyeworks' signature sunglass styles. Cool local bands like the Dum Dum Girls, The Babies and Bleached grace the soundtrack.
