Stefan Kruger and Stefan Schmid produced the recently released debut album of Steye: "I'm just here to make you feel warm". Steye is a member of Pips:Lab, a collective of Dutch multimedia hooligans. During their time in the studio the Zuco's and Steye developed a new idea. "How about shooting video footage and let everyone, who feels like it, edit it into a music video?!"
So this is what’s up...
Visitors of ZUCO 103’s MySpace (www.myspace.com/zuco103) can download video footage. This footage was entirely filmed in front of a “green screen”, enabling the ones who edit the images to add a completely personal vibe. The footage consists of images of the band members from different camera angles. The footage is offered in DV format on the ZUCO 103 MySpace profile. The music video is for the track Longing (Saudade), from the recently released album After the Carnaval. ZUCO 103 made a special English version for the music video, also downloadable from their MySpace.
How can MySpace users compete?
Participants can upload the music video edits via a dedicated subsite of the ZUCO 103 MySpace profile till the 20th of October. The members of ZUCO103 will then select the top 5 edits. From the 24th of October MySpace users will be able to vote for their favourite video. This video will become the new music video for Longing (Saudade)! The winner will be awarded with a plane ticket and accomodation to a ZUCO 103 concert abroad. The winner will be officially announced in the first week of November.
The footage downloads will be available on September 1st. Examples will be available beforehand.
