Music video
The official video for "Doing It for the Money" was released August 11, 2017, and was directed by Daniel Henry and produced by Molly Oritz. The video utilizes Google's DeepDream Technology that "manipulates reality to create a sensory overload." On the topic of the video, Henry stated that "In researching more about the DeepDream world, I loved the idea of letting the collective unconscious of the internet play a part in the forming the music video. At any moment you can freeze frame and start to see a cryptic narrative that unfolds in infinite degrees. You might see a dog, or a dinosaur, or a dead president in these hallucinations, or it could just be projections of our inner turmoil."
