I decided to direct this video myself… the concept seemed simple enough… It turned out to be a bigger task than I had imagined and I quickly had to teach myself how to actually make a music video.

We put word out there for people to submit videos of themselves holding signs with whatever their dreams are, what inspires you to actually wake up I the morning and participate in society. Why do people even bother? What are your goals? We wanted the first thing that came to your mind.

We got so many amazing submissions from all around the world… plus we went out on the streets and randomly asked people to participate… surprisingly most people in NYC didn’t even think twice, they grabbed the marker and wrote something down.

As word spread about this video we ended up getting far more submissions emailed to us than we could ever use. We could easily make another 4 versions of this video… one of them alone could be dedicated to ‘love’ and ‘happiness’ by far the biggest responses.

Some of the responses were so creative they had to make it in. I had a great time making this video and watching everyone’s submissions… Not only did I learn how hard it is to make a music video I also learned a lot more about people. We all seem to want similar things; it’s more the priority for which we pursue these things that makes us who we are.

Please help us out by passing this video on to everyone you know and if you have myspace or face book please post it!
A new era for this band begins now!
Enjoy!
