OS X THEMED MUSIC VIDEO BUZZ PAYOFF

Along with every other website and YouTube surfer, a few days ago I posted a creative music video created by Dennis Liu for the band The Bird & The Bee which has created quite a "buzz" (har har) on the Internets in a short period of time. As a result, Liu is attracting a lot of attention as well. In addition to job offers from Yahoo, Microsoft, and HBO, here are other highlights:

  • Head nods from several known Hollywood producers and directors.
  • Talks to getting a manager/agent at a major talent representation agency.
  • NYU, USC, and Berkeley requesting the video to show their film/new media students.
  • E-mails from major corporations, including marketing directors and employees of Yahoo, Microsoft, HBO, Pixar, Disney, and of course Apple.
  • Invited to screen at film festivals world wide, from the UK to Australia.
  • An apple store manager in IL showed all her employees the video as an example to artfully show the power of the macs to customers.
  • The author of “Stickies” wrote to congratulate, as well as a lead developer of OSX.

MUSIC VIDEO FEAT. MAC OS X

Who needs MTV when I can watch brilliant music videos like this one for "Again & Again" by the Bird & the Bee on YouTube? Featuring two sexy fronts--a lip synching chick who I now have a major Indie hipster crush on and Apple's operating system with all the various peripheral software--this music video is another one of those creative endeavors that I really admire and simultaneously slap myself for not doing first already.

The YouTube page has a listing of all the software seen in the video, which is pretty neat.  I just like the usage of the Photobooth--that alone would have made a cool video.

Here's what this song would have looked like on a PC:
