This video fascinated me, but in my cynic mode, I scoffed at it.

Then, I read this interview with the director, Dave Meyers:

"We were both very into the idea of getting away from Hollywood and featuring real people in the video," Meyers said. "So we featured real people; they weren't actors. Finding two gay guys in Budapest was a challenge, because it's not as accepted there as it is in West Hollywood. I found an actual, real couple.

"The girl in the video isn't actually a sick girl, but we got her to shave her head, and, if you're an 11-year-old, that's a massive commitment. The people's commitment to it was really beautiful," he continued. "And then in the last scene, that wasn't 250 extras, that was 250 hardcore Katy Perry fans. Those people were jumping because they were loving life."

So I can close the tabs on my computer before I sleep tonight. *nods*

Heartless: The Story of the Tin Man from Brandon McCormick on Vimeo.

Ummm. Amazing. I really have no words for this, except that it proves that the future of film may actually be on the internet.

Ikea. Wow, that's all I can say. Wow. And I mean that in the best of ways! Ikea lets 100 cats loose into the store just to see what happens. And it's awesome!
