Jason Forrest, Big Outrageous Sound Club, Dir. Corey Smith
Megastar Jason Forrest, aka DonnaSummer, warms up during soundcheck. Upon finishing, he has to go to the bathroom. He walks by the restroom, and sees that it is out of order. Pissed off and having to piss, he walks down the street to an Asian restaurant in search of a bathroom, while being hassled by fans wanting an autograph. After doing his business, the disco diva looks at his watch and realizes that he's late for his own performance! Quickly, he runs through the streets of New York to get back into the Knitting Factory and make it onto the main stage in time to let loose his insane plunderphonic disco beats. Does he make it? See the video to find out!
-this was a music video done on the same day as jason's actual show at the knitting factory. as such, we didn't get many takes in. imagine the video like a "test" for the real version. imagine it with a steadicam and better lighting, and i think you have a real cool idea for a video-
Video is quicktime, 7 mb.
Imagine it shot on 35mm, on a steadicam, with lighting, a better song, a more charismatic artist, and a completely different concept - and I think you'd have a really cool video.
jk.... but I think I see why Jason Forrest has previously never been seen in his videos.
And on the concept note - it's nothing new. Not saying it can't be done well, but it's been done a million times.
And concerts always start later than they say!
