    Video Teaser !!

    Just got a brief edit of some of the footage from the first day of the shoot from director, William Murray:

    'Futile & Fooled' music video teaser from William Murray on Vimeo.


    This is a VERY small sample of what we did, the second shoot is still being organized and will probably take place around the new year. Expect a much more colorful, playful and crisp section to balance the blurry chaos of this first part !!

    Also, PLEASE email me to get the link for the free song (thanks!) and your t-shirt size if you donated $50 or more. Thanks so much !!!!! brettgleason@gmail.com

    Day 1 of shooting completed - thanks to YOUS !!

    First off: A HUGE thanks to everyone who helped make this happening not just by donating but by sharing the link, the video, the project - the enthusiasm has helped make this happen just as much as the funds so THANK you.
    Here are some pics from the first day of shooting. This is a VERY small sample of all the we did (which was a LOT) but still only 1/3 of all the shooting we plan to do. I have a very ambitious plan and an incredible director lined up so be prepared for some more updates.
    Simply put: We went to an abandoned power plant on the Hudson River in Yonkers. A lot of what we did was lip synching shots mixed with some stunts (yes, STUNTS). I am a daredevil my friends :)
    This portion of the video will be very dark but the rest will be very diverse, colorful, playful....
