Shooting The Music Video : Part 1

So there’s been a lot going on in the world of Please Do Not Fight and one of the staples of that has been the filming of the music video for “On The Other Hand, Fight! Fight! Fight!”. It is directed by Richie Gordon and produced by his company Power Ten Productions. Richie is a guy who is super into film and is currently a student at USF studying just that. Since we’re all about supporting other local artists who wish to make a living doing what they love we jumped on board at the opportunity to shoot a video with him.

I’m going to wait to tell you guys about the full concept for the video but needless to say it is notably goofier and more of a straight-ahead video than the one for “What Am I Trying To Save?”. We’re hoping you’ll enjoy it a lot and not think we’re too dang silly!

Anyways, the music video was shot over two days and at both shoots I was able to get some behind-the-scenes clips. This first clip chronicles the Wednesday shoot in which we shot all of the performance footage (Us just playing along to the song and rocking out). We filmed from 8pm – 2am which was particularly rough on poor Geoff who had been up since 6am and had to be at work the next day at 6am again. We had a lot of fun though and Richies mom provided us all with plenty of food for which we are forever in her debt!

There’s no official release date for the video yet but it shouldn’t be too long. I’ll let ya’ll know when I know and I’ll post Part 2 of our behind-the-scenes adventures soon!

If you’re interested in what other crazy things are going on with us you might wanna scope out the MySpace or join up for our mailing list on the right!

Much love,
