he is serious, the band are hectic at the moment, doing a modern rock song video
and preparing to head back into the studio, and delabel (the french label) would
really like to be able to continue to promote the album.

so if you're really interested then there are a couple of things you should do:
1- make sure you've got a showreel (a short film clip that you've shot just
showing what you've done before and what you can do) of something you've done, put
it on VHS and mail that in envelope with...
2- a treatment for the 'dirty dream...' video that you would like to shoot. a
treatment is a written storyboard type thing explaining exactly what the video
would look like and when things in the video happen. it is not just a written
idea, it's very detailed and literally explains every shot you would do in advance
of filming it. a good treatment would allow the reader to know in his/her head
exactly what the video would look like.

you should then post these in to us at the postal address (snail mail) below, when
they arrive they'll be forwarded by first class directly to stuart m or the band's
office.

then it'll be up to the band to decide which one gets picked :)

PS: band involvement in the video is not guaranteed since they'll be recording
soon, you should try and write two treatments if you were hoping to have them in
the video, one with them in the video, and the other one not featuring the band at
all.

PPS: the french will be pay for it, but remember that this won't get a you a large
budget, so thinking along the lines of a 'will smith' video will probably make
them go bust and as such, will ensure yours isn't picked. a good idea will see you
further than a large budget proposal.

PPPS: good luck!
