Today we will start filming a video for the song Constantinople 1453. Filming starts around 12:00 and will probably go on through the late afternoon. Part of it will be shot outside, and the high for today is suppose to be 36 degress but its really windy which means it'll feel around 10 degrees so I will be freezing my nuts off. haha!

This should be a cool video. We are using all HD cameras and there is a cast so it will pretty much be like a mini movie in a way. It will be something epic to fit right along with the song, it will be METAL!

Well thats all for now. Im off to freeze my butt off! i'll update how everything went later.

Sounds cool! Looking forward to see it. It's a great song.

How many hours did it take the make up artist to make you look great?
Will this be released?
Maybe as a bonus on the limited edition of your next album....

Hahahahahahah! Good one! Actually it didnt take long for the make up since im just a natural beauty it only took about 10 minutes if it was even that. Yea of course the video will be released, how we will do it were not sure because its going to be like a mini movie and will probably be around 15 minutes or so. Its not going to fit up on youtube so were thinking of exactly how we are going to market this. We'll probably have a shortened version. We were thinking about the DVD idea so its possible we include it on the next album but we dont even know when or if that will be. It all kind of depends on this video. Were actually going to be bringing this to film festivals, maybe the history channel and whatever else we can find that we can tie it in with history stuff since thats what its about. We have many options. When it gets closer to completion we'll know a little more.

Sounds very interesting!
I`m not a big fan of music videos, but making it a mini movie sounds like a great idea..

Im not really either, especially now since they are pretty much extinct except from you tube or bands websites. I think with the mini movie theme to it, it will be something different and I guess you can say educational as well since its about a historical event.

so uh. what happened to this, did ya'lll ever release it?

filming is all done it just has to be put together which is being worked on. Were hoping it'll be done sometime in Feb. early March.

The song is also being remixed by the keyboardist from Revolution Renaissance. We met him during our video shoot through someone else who is in our video and he liked our album, but he said if we wanted he could do some tweeking with the mix if we wanted. Its too late now and kind of pointless to remix the whole album so we let him do this one song.

Were also going to have another website just for this because its going to be tied into a lot of other stuff that I really dont know the full details about yet but everythings still being worked on slowly but surely.

wow, sounds cool!

yes, bring it on!

Cool! Looking forward to see it.

haha me neither since I havent seen it yet myself lol

ah.... finally a set release date for the video. I was a few month off hehe
