My first pop video: Soldiers Song
But a few weeks ago I was contacted to be technical advisor for a music video shoot. The band, Julian Tomas & Friends play smooth jazz and are fairly local to me.
The band play a lot of gigs in the Ukraine, so the song was decided to have a WW2 (Great Patriotic War) theme.
I provided all of the Soviet kit and weapons from my collection. Lead singer Julian wears my uniform.
The German group were my good friends from GD Reccon.
The filming with "GD" took place over a Saturday night stating at 5.30pm and ending at 3.30am! I was there for the filming on the Monday and this took from 9.30am and we did not pack up untill 10pm. So you can see how long this kind of thing takes.
I am really happy with the finished results: the guys looked nice and dirty and dusty.
Listen to the words of the song.
Cheers, Ade.
