08/01/05 'till at last I'm your bride

...The 'We Are All On Drugs" video shoot (for what I'm calling "V2.0", the version for USA [and other places if they prefer it over the 'Reaper' version 1.0]) took place last Monday and Tuesday in Los Angeles, and reportedly went very well. The video was directed by Justin Francis. Heres a mini bio of Justin, (found here): "Justin Francis is a New York-based Director and Cinematographer. A graduate of NYU's Grad Film Program, he has photographed over thirty short films and directed four of his own. Justin worked closely under DP Matthew Libatique on Requiem For A Dream and acted as a camera intern on Spike Lee's Freak for HBO. While currently developing his own projects, Justin has shot and directed spots for Kenneth Cole NY, Reaction, Sony Music, MCA Records, Fubu, and Lifetime Television."

The video is in the editing process now and we are hoping to see it on the air by mid August!
