I worked with Fourth Grade Security Risk ( <a href="http://www.geocities.com/fgsrgunman/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.geocities.com/fgsrgunman/index.html</a> ) on bringing their hit single Farm Trip '89 to life visually.

Here's a couple links where it can be downloaded:

Let me know what you guys think of it... I'm planning on doing many more videos for the band. It should be fun...

Very interesting first video. Nice editting effects. Interesting background music. I'm interested in seeing the next one.

I kept seeing "no outlet" everywhere. I imagine that was intended. Nice mix of black & white.

the one caveat I should mention is with the audio: the words and background didn't really blend. The only reason I bring it up is for contructive criticism.

Can't wait to see your next work.</strong><hr></blockquote>


Cool, glad you guys liked it. Yeah, the "No Outlet" was intended, cause y'know there's no outlet from the farmland, right? It's less subliminal in my 50 meg .mpg of it, it's around for a few more frames giving it the effect of repetition and transition... A warning, if you will.

I did what I could making the words match up with the background, but that was hard... There's not much farmland around here, I mean there is in Maryland but you need to drive for a while to get to it... The only farmland that was near me was this quarter mile long stretch of it which was absolutely perfect, that's where I got the silo shots, the cows, all of the unabashed farm shots... The rest were pretty much run down houses I shot on the way that I thought looked cool... Plus the cemetery that we wandered in to.

Heh, yeah I understand about the music... Some of his songs are really funny. Some of them have extremely intelligent lyrics with a lot of meaning, but this doesn't happen to be one of them... It's just what we got the idea to shoot a video for first.

I can't wait to start on my next one, it's going to be awesome... It might even feature the destruction of a television set!

Just as long as it doesn't involve the destruction of a Neo Geo
