We shot a video today for "Wolves at the Door." We were outside... It was cold... That seems to be, more often than not, my experience with music videos: being outdoors somewhere in November. And even if we're inside, let's say, a log cabin, the door is always kept open for some crucial, extension-cord-involving reason and it's still cold.
On the plus side there's usually someone nice who's job it is to bring people coffee and soup. This time I got a sealed styrofoam container filled with, apparently, soup, but it was taken away from me before I could have any; we were in the middle of doing an important soup-less scene. I watched as different crew members chaperoned my soup to various spots on set before it disappeared altogether. "Thanks," I muttered. Not actually. I thought this blog could use more dialogue.
I think the video's going to turn out really well though. It takes place mostly in the woods where a Little Red Riding Hood-type character (played by my new friend Maria) is being chased by a Big Bad Wolf-type character (played by...Sean, was it? Sean's always my first guess when I forget a guy's name.) But the whole time that's going on, the four of us are performing the song in a cabin wearing matching suspenders that kept falling off mid-chorus. Other stuff happens too... A smoke machine got my allergies going at one point.
Knowing us, this video probably won't be made public until Fall 2014.
