    Thumbs up Awesome Video!

    This is one of the very few little projects I'm proud to say I worked on... K worked on it too and we actually worked well together for once. We shot this in one day at a house in Arcadia and I still can't believe this was Southern California, it was much too pretty. They were doing some really weird things with the camera and audio while we were shooting, but it turned out really well! And I didn't even mind hearing the song 40,000 times over the course of a single day, heh, because it was a great song.

    I'd like to be directing videos like this one day. This is sort of an inspiration because the director was just doing little YouTube movies when she got picked to do this, and she did a great job even if she was a little annoying.

    I know, music videos usually suck because they have to play the song over and over and over and over and over... argh. But I never did get tired of this one. I loved this song and I want to look up more of this band's stuff because I'd never heard of them before the shoot.

    There was a neat technique I liked that we did a lot of - we'd play the song at double speed and shoot at double speed, so when played back it would be in slow motion. So their lips are moving normally but the other movements (hair and clothing moving, trees waving, etc.) were soft and slow. It was a neat effect and I'm glad I get to see how it worked out because I was curious!

    Oh HELL no. I wish. We were assistant directors on it. The director had never directed professionally before, so for a first-time job she did great. She was discovered through her YouTube videos... makes me want to do a bunch of YouTube videos now, and I intend to.

    Assistant Directors - well, you were still involved and it looks really good! It looks like it belongs on VH1!

    Ok. So this is the third time I'm watching it and I think the groom is absolutely adorable. Would you please tell him that there is one very horny stripper in Las Vegas who is waiting to give him a free lap dance??? thank you.

    That video is of professional production quality. You have good reason to be proud.

    Well, it WAS a professional production... unlike most of my AD work, I was actually paid rather well. I made more than I would've made if I'd gone to my shitty club that day, anyway, and I had a pretty good time on an easy shoot.

    The vast majority of the production work I do is on horrible shit. I'll work for slave wages and unbelievable hours on some soul-sucking piece of crap and then I see my name in the credits and I'm ashamed that I helped to make it happen. So on the very rare occasion I play even a small role in creating something good, it's a very pleasant feeling and I want to share!

    And LuckyOne, yeah, his name is Blake something and he's even hotter in person. But then, I like short dudes and he's something like 5'2", barely taller than me. He was shorter than K, who is 5'4". Thoroughly nice guy, too. I'd give him a free lapdance right along with you!

    Dude, I have a crush. I bet he wrote the song too. He is the "silver lining." Did you notice he's wearing silver shoes and a silver bowtie in the video. She's wearing gold. Yum. Yeah, I'd tag team him with you.

    Sounds fun!

    Apparently he and the lead singer (the bride in the video) were together for a few years and it didn't work out. But they're still in the same band and they made this song/video. I don't know which one of them wrote the song or whether it's about their relationship, but one does wonder!
