Sad Song - official music video - Jeffery Straker

HIT THE SUBSCRIBE BUTTON at the top of the page

This new video has an interesting story about how it came to be. It started out as a little 'shot on super 8' film by film-maker Eric Hill in Regina Saskatchewan.
A volunteer cast from Regina SK (including Jeffery's parents) came out for the group scenes.
Several months later footage was shared with Rawfootage Productions in Toronto (who produced the video Hypnotized that reached #6 on Much More Music). Some additional shooting/editing in Toronto 'set in a cinema' made the whole thing come together.

Hope you enjoy this! All in - it took a full year to come to life.
Can you spot Jeffery's parents in this?? They're so tickled that they are in a music video on something called 'youtube'....

THANKS!:
Thanks to the volunteer cast in Regina.
Thanks to Eric Hill for the Regina shooting/directing
Thanks to Alex Colthart at Rawfootage productions for filming/directing the Toronto shoot and the editing! Thanks Kendra for making things make sense at 2AM.
Thanks to Tom Hutchinson & Rainbow cinemas, Canada
