This is a test video Director David put together. I'm not comfortable with singing for camera yet, as you can see. I'm planning on downing a tequila or so before doing this shoot... even if it WILL be at 9am in the morning on Saturday! HA! :)

So the last few weeks have been pretty crazy. Between the usual buzz of my reporter job and my gigging, I've been working with Director David (as I will call David Speranza) on my first music video, for the song "Love as Tragedy: A Play in 3 Acts." Not going to exhale just yet, but I have to express my slight surprise that things have worked out so far. Of course, much remains to be seen. Maybe I just believe in Murphy's Law a little too much. :)
David put together a narrative story for the music video that sticks pretty close to the lyrics, something I really like. Storytelling is something I enjoy doing with my music, and in that song in particularly, so it's very cool that he decided to bring that out as the centerpiece to the video. We got some actors to volunteer (mostly his doing, I don't know enough actors), I got some extras together... it's been kind of nerve wracking, but then what's a better sign that it's all worth it?
We're shooting the video at the always awesome Paul Vincent Studios, which I'm familiar with from my work with photographer Virginia Kamenitzer. The place is super neat. Check it out.
More to come soon...
