Freewrite on Video


Cake-Love You Madly

(Since someone decided to disable this video on youtube.com the day after I put it on here, I'm giving you the link instead. Sorry for the inconvenience.)

So this music video is pretty interesting. It has absolutely nothing to do with the song I'm almost positive. They copied Iron Chef of America with the trumpeter and the drummer from Cake. Then to make it even more funny they had Rick James a musician, Phyllis Diller a comedian, and Jeff Smith from the Frugal Gourmet as the judges. I thought it was interesting what ingredients they picked to create a dish with; pumpkin and salmon? I don't know but watching the video made me hungry for some awesome food and I bet the food they cooked was awesome. Too bad I can't have any of it. Salmon is my favorite food ever.

I think it's neat how it's a very laid back video. The camera will go up close on what one of the chef's is doing then the far back camera will come onto the screen showing the up close camera man. From watching this video you can tell it was all good fun and they just wanted to make a completely random video. I really like the band Cake. I don't think of them that often but they are very good. To also make the video laid back they had each judge come into the room through a curtain by themselves struttin their stuff to show a little character.
