"Sleeping Through" - Ryan Cassata Music OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO - Suicide Awareness

Last September (2010) I got together with a "crew" and over a 3 day span we plotted and filmed a "short film" & music video for "Sleeping Through." "Sleeping Through" is a song from my EP Distraction that was released in January of 2011. The song was featured in the independent film "Loop Planes" which won many awards and screened in some of the worlds biggest film festivals like Tribeca & South by Southwest. (It even screened with The Runaways in Israel!)

The video was shot on one camera, the flip camera HD, with a seven person crew including the two-man cast with a very limited budget ($10). Completely DIY (do it yourself)!

*THE CONCEPT: The concept of "Sleeping Through" is to display the need for equality and what damages the lack of equality could do to a person. (Suicide)

If you actually read this you will know to keep watching after the CREDITS.***

@Green6364 There's a lyric video on youtube if you search "Sleeping Through" Lyrics. There's also the lyrics on lyric sites. Not sure which. People put them up so I'm not sure if all the words are right. Just search in google.

Ryan, ever since I first posted that comment I've had this song stuck in my head! I've even shared it with several friends through facebook [I sent you a friend's request, by the way] and when I was with family. I will be sharing this song with my therapist [I wish she was my gender one, but not able to have that yet] because I know she'll like it as well.

Hey Ryan, I've been following you for a full day now and when I got to this video I was moved to tears. It's so sad and yet true about the rate of suicide although I'm actually surprised it isn't higher. I am thinking about using this song at a contest in October and if I get to do it I'll video reply it. I hope I pay homage to the song as it deserves.
