Owl City- Vanilla Twilight Music Video (Fan-Made)

This is the third of my faux Owl City music videos starring my little brother.
I used a Nikon d5000 DSLR camera with a 50mm lens. The video was meant to test out lighting techniques. Editing and color grading were done in Final Cut Pro. All rights to this song belong to Owl City and Universal
republic records.

I was going through my playlist of songs recently when this song came into play and it got me thinking of how I first came across Owl City's Vanilla Twilight (which is imo one of their best songs ever). It was this exact video that introduced me to this lovely song and funny story, at the time I found out of this song I initially thought that the guy in this video was the one who created and sang this song. It wasn't until a month or two later (yes, I didn't bother to look up Owl City on Google; I was a foetus then) that I found out this was just sorta like a cover video charmingly played by your little brother.

This all happened about 3-5 years ago but whenever I hear of this song, I am reminded of this MV, how I thought your little brother was "Owl City" and how much this song has surprisingly turned out to be so meaningful to me (thanks to this story of mine).

something sad. something beautiful. something nostalgic. something magical.

I love 2 things about this video:

1) How jealous some people are of your brother and so feel the need to say mean things
2) How amazing it is !

If no one told me this was a faux music video I would've thought it was a real one. Great job!

This video is absolutly amazing. Everything about it makes me smile. This song is perfect for him to be singing, because it really looks like he could be singing it. If that makes any sense. The lighting was beautiful, it looks very professional, and the setting is wonderful. Great job! I really hope you keep making videos.

Sick camera work. It's one thing to have a sick camera, it's another to know how to use it. Well done sirs.
