Nice, I like the narrative feel of the video as apposed to the typical hip-hop video style of lens flares, fisheyes, etc...Gets a little old.
 
Yea it does have a more narrative feel to it.
 
it was actually done for exactly 25k out of busta's own pocket...and everyone worked basically for free.

the dp owns the lighting company and the grip eq was also donated, my camera was also pretty much donated as well as my time, we were supporting the artist and the director as they have both provided work over the years...always give back as i have said many times.
 
Dino!! This is awesome my friend, that had to have been a fun set to be on and watch

Dino, just curious, on what other video shoots have you been with Busta in the past? Anything I should recognize?
 
that was my first with him and third with the director, the other two with the director was one for alisha keyes (which was just a test) and then some pick ups on a ludacris video ( which i posted about). but i have done about 50 jobs with the dp whom is normally a gaffer for crash, jerry dugan, wayne isham and a bunch of other directors. also the exec producer is crash's wife, so it was all in the family...i had jamin (jim's son) work with me that day, i think he had fun too.

for a very low bud video there were about 75 people on the crew and then another 50 to 75 people there as talent or affiliated with talent, it was a circus.
