A music video I made (unofficial) for the song "Summer Madness" by Kool & The Gang.
dont you think it should have an urban setting?

@Alex19al Not necessarily. Though, for better or worse, I'm not personally one to make hard-and-fast rules that dictate the ultimate nature of the work. Other filmmakers prefer the opposite of this, a David Fincher-like 'there's only two ways to shoot a scene, and one of them is the wrong way' approach. As far as I'm concerned, you need both sets of 'schools' in order to have a wider, more diverse, more inventive array of media available for consumption.

@BrentLong But like I said, I still situate myself in the perspective of the former.

This was the second music video I ever made. I posted it to Vimeo on April 13, 2008, and I recall filming it the Friday before that--right after coming home from school.
I made a note about it on Facebook, but that was back during the time when I didn't tag anyone in the notes, so things got easily buried.
And I can't believe this was only made a year ago. It seems like SO much longer ago than that.
