Congratulations Saint John, it’s a Music Video!

Last week we filmed Chris Cummings’s next music video in the Saint John Community – what a whirlwind!

It’s funny, I actually studied some film in college and often wondered if I had made the wrong choice in walking away from that profession – it just seems so cool, sexy and exciting from the outside. And of course the creativity involved is really attractive. But after last week I’m convinced I made the right choice… not because it isn’t cool, sexy and exciting, but because I genuinely don’t have the stamina to keep up!

I’ll try to put together a more detailed post in the near future (for now I’ll be concentrating on uploading the behind the scenes photos, which I’m sure is more appealing to many). For now though I really want to thank the Saint John Community for all of the amazing support we received on the project.

Honestly, I expected people to be excited about this thing because it is such a great, fresh idea, but I was genuinely touched by how many residents showed up to help out on set. In every municipality we had a following – some wanted to be extras and some were content to help by holding a sign or piece of equipment and watching the show. And of course our corporate sponsors, those wonderful folks who stepped up to lend us their planes, trains and automobiles (yes we had all three, and a boat!) really contributed to what will be a very complex and rich final product.

Like I said, I’ll try to get online again this week and net out some of the details of the shoot, but in the mean time THANK YOU SAINT JOHN!
