silentdescantI just dashed into the computer lab for a few minutes before class when I found out THE VIDEO HAS BEEN ONLINE SINCE THIS MORNING. and here it is, embedded and linked for your viewing pleasure.

I don't really have time to talk about it a lot right now, but OMG. OMGGG. I LOVE IT. ...even though I already knew this take. but I think you should know that two of my dogs (my sister's dogs, really) are in this: Dazzle, the black and white border collie, is at the top of the pyramid at the end, and Peanut, the fluffy white shih-tzu is in a bunch of different parts: elevators, spinny chairs, popcorn (the jumping), and the end pyramid. also, the super fat, little brown dog is one of Damian's dogs, Bunny, and she was pretty much my responsibility during a lot of the shoot.
I AM SO EXCITED THAT YOU CAN SEE IT NOW. keeping quiet was SO DIFFICULT.
ALSO, here's a little interview with Lauren, the head dog trainer, and Trish, the director and Damian's sister, about the behind the scenes stuff.
♥
ETA: here's a bit of behind the scenes footage! there was a B-roll camera guy around the whole time, but this particular footage is from the fist time Damian and Trish visited the set, before I was part of the project. (I came in like a day before the band did.) my sister's in there, though! and Dazzle!

Date: 2010-09-21 03:50 am (UTC)That looks like it must have been so much fun! Are you a professional dog-trainer of some sort? All the time you were posting about it, I figured you were an extra in the video! (Kinda like the marching-band-in-a-field video or something) But I will never complain about AWESOME DOGS.

Date: 2010-09-22 06:01 pm (UTC)I'm not a dog trainer, but my sister is. and I got kind of adopted by the trainers, because I'm really good with dogs and, growing up with Katherine, I ~kind of know how to train them too. I started out as a furniture mover, giving the band all the pieces they need, but then the trainers took me over and that was actually a better job for me! LOTS OF FUN. I got to play with cute dogs all day for a few weeks. \o/
