Video Premier!

A while back, an old friend and I were talking about internet “content” as well as current music and music videos and how whatever happened to just good old fashioned STORYTELLING?

It seems much of what’s on our smart devices are chasing some sort of ever changing algorithm. Anywho … getting back to basics …

Here’s my weekend efforts for a new music video for "Wild Country Song" written and performed by Jshua.

It's a story of a shared sweet moment between him and his muse on a hot summer night but also one of constraint ... It's a very CATCHY TUNE! I’ve been humming it everyday for about a week and a half now!

2-D animation and about 30 hours of key-framing. Illustration by my very own Shai! ♥️

Hope you enjoy!
