SUPER-DREAD SAVES THE DAY
Okay, here’s the shot:
You walk into the manager’s office. The band is sitting on a black leather couch against the wall, staring down at a fruit tray. The manager rises from his desk and offers you coffee. You say no because you’ve already had enough of the liquid fuel to power a steam ship to China. The manager cocks his head like a dog who’s heard a sound inaudible to the human ear and lifts his eyebrows high up on his forehead
Then the band lean in, looking at you, waiting for you to blow their collective mind.
You are the video director and it’s up to you, in one sentence, to sell the band on the video concept that turns out to be this visually stunning, grippingly cinematic 3 Doors Down video premiere, “It’s Not My Time.”
Here’s ours:.
It’s the gripping drama of Sixth Sense with the hyperkinetic action of Casino Royale backed by the thunderous rock song by a band that shoots straight for your bloody, pulsing heart and pulls absolutely no punches.

FYI the ridiculously dangerous, gravity-ignoring sport of freestyle walking is incorporated into the video thanks to a former gym teacher turned stuntman who has been featured on shows like Heroes. Here’s our star, Gabe, also known as JayWalker with his stuntman crew “Tempest” performing at the stuntman awards.
