Matt came by the other day and we finally finished a final cut on the music video. There's chunks I'm still not happy with, but it's a compromise between Matt and myself, and he's not always wrong. I just think the escalator bit is a little silly.
Matt Brouwer EPK (4:30 AM)
If you get in a car accident and have some minor whiplash, staying upright all night does not help.
It is now 4:30 AM and I leave for Vegas tomorrow, but I'm still up finishing up Matt Brouwer's EPK for him to take to the GMAs tomorrow. He's finally finished recording his record and is back in town to go over everything with me, which is a much easier way of going about making these videos - we've invested way too much time into cuts that never saw the light of day.
Apparently Matt's being considered to open for the Counting Crows, so he's got meetings all this week about tour dates and promotions and whatnot. This video will be shown there, as well as news stations when he gets interviewed. Here's the video:
Matt Brouwer - Surrender (live)
I'll explain more about this later, but for right now, here's the first of three or four Matt Brouwer videos:
Well, later then.
I ended up doing a late-night shoot for the Matt Brouwer EPK that we're finishing up, so no posting tonight. Instead, here's a couple stills from the shoot.
Patty Hunton, who filled in on bass at the last second.
Kevin Jetton, the other video editor here at the church, who filled in on electric (an instrument he does not play) at the very last second.
And MVP Tigh Homstrom, who came back to to shoot with us again, a month and a half after we started.
Props, crew.
