I know, I know...

Sorry for the lack of posts. I really don't lead a very blog-worthy life, I've decided.
Now, I don't know if many know this, but I don't really care a whole lot about music....I know, I know. Music isn't a huge priority to me. It's not that I don't enjoy music, but I'm just not one to obsess over bands, frequent concerts, or search out new artists. If I'm not in my car, I rarely listen to tunes, and if I had to choose between having music or movies on in the background while I did things, movies would always win.**


All that aside, I do enjoy a good music video. I've dug up a few videos from friends blogs' that I really enjoy. (Thank you, Maren and Julie.) 






These last two videos are by my very talented friend, Matt Walker. He and his wife/my good friend, Julie, are quite possibly some of the most creative people I know. They do everything themselves: make all the scenes by hand, choose the music, shoot the videos, etc. Simply brilliant. They also make custom videos for weddings, engagements, parties--pretty much whatever your little heart can dream up. Their videos are super original and wonderfully personal--I love them!

**I take no issue with those people who DO make music a priority--after all, if it wasn't for them I probably wouldn't have half the music on my ipod, or even these little gems to post. It's just not my thing, that's all.

  1. Matt and I read this in the middle of the night as we were in the throws of making a little movie but feeling rather discouraged. This was the salve for our little wounds. Yep, the salve.
