Music Video Shoot: Night One...

IMG_8051

The video shoot for Drown With Me's music video began tonight. The preparations though, began weeks ago. Part of the preparation was to get some posters done and some photos taken. So the band finally got ourselves together and took some glamour shots, which you may catch a glimpse of in the following photos. We promise to put up the glam-shots in a gallery soon. The excitement and anticipation building up to tonight was exhiliarating. It is our first music video, and from the looks of it, it will be an edgy one.

Here are some photos from tonight, mostly of the Fallen Leaves Wall Shrine which is the feature wall in the main character's room.

Fallen Leaves would like to show our appreciation for the people involved in visualising Drown With Me and giving it a life beyond radio. We are extremely appreciative and grateful for them using their talents and not asking for anything back in return. These people make us happy!

Drown With Me: Music Video: Synopsis

Here it is, straight from the e-mail of the director. Slightly controversial, but no need for worry, there's nothing explicit... mostly suggested.

DROWN WITH ME-synopsis

-try to keep up with these random thoughts and pictures – try listening to song at the same time- it will confuse u even more- exactly my point-

Band. Freeze frame. Picture. Put down picture. One wall covered totally of band pictures. Spy cam: she took her hand out of her shorts. Her face flushed. Must have been masturbating. Messy room. Empty aquarium like an altar. Embrace wall. Hit wall. Curse wall. Tear wall. burn pictures. Gather ashes. Put in pot. Cut pics. Sprinkle in aquarium water. Pot grows plant. Mini dump in aquariums: used undies, used condoms, used teddies, album cover, pig’s heart, eggs. She strip tease the plant. 2 cups of milo. Ashes mix in. She swallowed one. Flirt with plant in pot. Angry. She toss the other milo at the plant. Plant in aquarium. She stares at it. Save the plant. CPR. Just got messier. Plant uprooted on floor. Quite dead. She sleeps with it. (or die with it, we don't really know.)

End here.

Version 2 ending
Or with hope:
She opens door. See girl holding a pot. Look inside. A single seed in pot.
