by david usher on April 24, 2008 at 10:19 am

The treatments are in and Ive chosen what I think the best one will be. Im actually excited to shoot it. Sometimes videos can be a pain if you’re not excited about the concept and dont think its going to be interesting. Im liking this one alot. has the possibility of greatness…?

Im going to talk to the director today to see if he is cool with me posting some of the ideas as we go through the process. I’ll let you know this afternoon:)

Happy birthday David. You should give yourself the day off. You deserve it!

Hope the director is cool with it. I know all your fans will enjoy going through this process with you. If not thanks for trying.

My gawd man, it’s your birthday, do you ever take time off? Very excited for the release and love hearing all the little steps in the process. Possibility of greatness eh? Such a tease, we don’t even know the title of the song. Glad to see it’s still exciting for you guys too, a birthday wish that it always will be.

Spring coming, deconfusion to come.

Sounds great, I really liked the Videos for the strange birds releases, They gave the album a type of character different from if the videos had been completely independant of each other. Happy Birthday and kudos on the process that you are implementing here.

Happy Birthday dear David,
Happy Birthday to you!!!
Sorry, it’s a family tradition we have, so I couldn’t resist!! I hope you get to enjoy your day- or at least some of it (because you are always working). That would be great if we got to be a part of the video making process as well. You are too good to us- and we definitely appreciate it!! Take Care, Andrea xxxx

I went to the river a few hours before to send off upon water all my best wishes to the artist that you are. Can’t wait to see the video, you are my favorite singer.

From layarda — April 25, 2008 @ 12:06 am

Hm, very exciting indeed.

Happy birthday, man.

From amy — April 26, 2008 @ 1:33 am

i always love the video-making processes…it would be such a treat if you were able to post the video’s progress as it goes along!

this is such an exciting time, just before the album & single hits, and now a video! so much to look forward to

everything you do has the possibility of greatness!

From musicfan13 — April 26, 2008 @ 1:40 pm

I’ve recently discovered your music through a friend of mine all because I started listening to “Black Black Heart.”
You have an amazing voice when you sing any song.
Listening to your songs really inspire me every day.
Especially “The Music” and “Love Will Save The Day.”
Skimming through the comments, people have wished you happy birthday but I don’t know when that is for you, but Happy Belated Birthday!
I wish you success and hope to attend at least one of your performances in my lifetime.

P.S. - Good luck with the video-making.

From lalou — April 28, 2008 @ 12:16 pm

Still waiting for some news…If we don’t have any, I guess it’s because there’s good news.
For you and for us…
O.K…I will check tomorrow again. Through all the problems about commercial part of your job, does it is still funny to make music David?

From moisteph — April 28, 2008 @ 3:36 pm

From Bryan — April 29, 2008 @ 12:53 am

congrats on the little one (again).

as for the video/videos, I’d still like to see animation. Something like “A Scanner Darkly”. If you haven’t seen it here’s a link.

I’m sure you could make an amazing video with a weird animated concept.

From Bryan — April 29, 2008 @ 1:08 am

oh… and there’s a film called “Waking Life”, which you may find interesting. it also uses “rotoscope” animation.
