Lucky is a music video created for the band All lndia Radio. It won Best Animated Music Video at the St Kilda Film Festival in 2010.

Darcy Prendergast and the team at Oh Yeah Wow merged live action with images created with coloured lights to animate inner-city Melbourne.

The instrumental music provides a melancholic feel in contrast to the bright, often playful, animated figures and neon 'scribbles'.

Prendergast said, 'Lucky was spontaneous – we would leave the studio as soon as night fell and spend an hour or two on set every night just trying to think of what to shoot. There wasn't much of a direction, it was just fun.'
