Incubus' new music video

Brandon Boyd says:
"Here's what we are after. Incubus is looking for a great video for their upcoming single "Dig". The band has witnessed the explosion of user generated content on the web and are excited to see how fans are finding new ways to interact with their favorite artists. They've seen how many of their fans are using their own resources and imagination to create their own videos. And frankly they are bored with the idea of making videos in the typical music industry fashion. This time they are looking to do something outside the normal channels of video making. This video is "DIG" any way you want it.

"Here's how it will work. Incubus has shot performance footage to the new single, "Dig" from their new album "Light Grenades". The performance was shot on 6 cameras against green screen. Footage is posted here in hi and lo res. The director/team can download performance footage and other digital assets and then make your own video. You will be required to sign the release by checking the box below which give up all rights to the video in perpetuity. From there it’s all yours.

"In the typical industry modus operandi, we would pick a single, solicit treatments, decide on a director, then hire a company to make the video. From start to finish the process could take 2-4 weeks before a video spits out the other end. You won't get much longer than that either. The machine waits for nobody. Deadline for submissions will be January 15th.

"We don't want to see your treatment. We're not going to give you any budget. We're not going to give you anything but the song and the band performance footage if you want it. The band footage does not even need to be in the video. You will not need our approvals for anything.

"The search is going to be wide. We'll target Incubus fan sites as well as Film Schools and Film related chat boards. In a perfect world the biggest Incubus fan in the world would also be a Stephen Spielberg in waiting. But its not a requirement. This project will take not only love and passion but will obviously require some technical skills as well. It does not matter if a team or an individual working on his or her own does the video. The only thing that matters is that it be great! Good luck!"

Here is the link to the downloads; should they be needed.
