This song is from our album 'The Time Spent Wondering'
I met Greame and Dan, the directors of this video online... i knew absolutely nothing about them aside from the fact that they lived in the UK and told me they made videos and wanted to make one for 'Come In Closer'.
I remember at the time some of the people i was playing with thought it was insane to have someone i never met and who's work id never seen make a video... but i figured if they chose this song, then they get it.
After talking to them on the phone i had no doubts... They asked my vision for the song and we discussed their ideas... then they went off for two months and worked on it.
About a month went by without hearing from them, everyone had pretty much forgotten about the whole idea... but they called to tell me they were excited with how it was coming out and wanted to fly to the U.S. and show it to us in person... i told them we'll just throw a party. invite everyone and debut the video in style.
About 24 hours before the party we met Dan and Graeme... they turned out to be 19 year old college students... they showed us the video, but there was one problem... it wasn't rendered and was still on a hard drive unable to play at a party.
we spent the whole next day working with them and finally got the DVD of the video burnt about 2 hours before the world premiere.
The video clearly turned out amazing. It went on to receive amazing critical reviews, millions of online plays, spins on MUCH MUSIC etc.
Treasure hunt:
Each member of the band was animated and put into scenes of the video as well as images of dan and graeme.
Directors: Graeme Pearce, Dan Murtha
Enjoy!
