We tried to reach our good friend for days but never received any word from him. Worried, we set out to his house, only to find it literally in ruins. He was nowhere to be found, but we did find his camera. We reviewed it and realized he wasn't really a good friend and we really didn't like him all that much, so we uploaded it so you can all see his last moments in style. So, as the saying goes, here is the actual footage.

--------


Actually that's all a lie. We worked hard on this music video and we hope you all enjoy watching it as much as we did making it (but without the moments of frustration and rage).

Please, if you comment, keep it clean. Critique and criticisms welcomed, but leave your insults and impolite words outside.

Director/Cinematographer: Michael
Story by: Mailani and Michael
Cameraman: Michael
The Ghost of Sir Roger Beachwood: Mailani

A very special thanks goes to these fine gentlemen for being the extra hands when we ran out of our own:
Todd (I love you)
(other) Michael

Musical Instruments and accessories provided by:
Matt, who is the most handsome man ever (Bass and Drums).
Tim, who is not the most handsome man ever cause that spot is already taken by Matt, but I'm sure is great in his own special way (Snare stand).
Sarah, who is no man at all, but is still cool, cause society today is more accepting of this (Drum sticks).
The Costume Closet (They supplied the fantastic mustache)
Side of the street (That's where we found the chair)


Though we are in fact, the creators and owners of this video, we are not the owners of the song, nor do we claim to be. All music belongs to the rightful artists (The Black Keys), and the label which they perform under. We are merely fans paying tribute to the music that inspires us daily.

Hurribrain filmed this video using the Canon 60D camera.

Thanks for watching and reading! Have a great day!

  • Out of interest, are you cutting with whip pans to give the effect of one shot? I'm realy interested in film-making, would appreciate an answer to this question! :P

  • @DetectiveDeckard We could say yes, but in truth, we just had our ghost move really, really fast.

  • 0:01-0:25 epic orgasim

  • @SS1LTSS We go all out to make sure we get the best performances possible from our talent.

  • What are you, Stanley Kubrick? You take two years between masterpieces? Gotta be a bit more efficient than that, you're on the internet!

  • @ToasterToast Funny you mention it, this took 3 years to make because we took the Kubrick approach to filming and did each take 600 times.

    We'll try a different method from here on out.
