Fan video take 2 – Active Volcanoes!

We need your help again friends!

Do you remember the video for My Problems? We asked you to record yourself lip-syncing to the song and we cut all the material into a video. Now it’s time to turn your cameras on us. During our upcoming U.S. tour, we’re asking everyone up to the task to record a few clips of the show and send us the material. This footage, combined with some stuff we shoot, will later be edited into a music video. We’re asking fans to focus on the song Active Volcanoes (streaming here), but feel free to send us clips or photos of other songs as well.

There are some guidelines that we’re asking you to follow:

  • Choose your moments. Don’t record the entire show. But…
  • Film as much as you can of the song Active Volcanoes. The whole song being ideal.
  • Share your material to info@dankojones.com. Use file sharing sites like yousendit etc. Please don’t send files directly to this email address. If you need help sharing your material, please contact us at the email above. We will help.
  • By sharing your material with us you agree that we can use and edit it the way we like. We will credit you, of course (stick around and watch the film credits rolling at the end of the video).
  • Please remember venue restrictions and photo policies do NOT allow the use of flash or camera lighting – this will result in a big hassle and we don’t want you dealing with that.

Happy filming. Look forward to seeing you all on the road!
