Scattered Trees, 'Four Day Straight' -- Video of the Day

Artist: Scattered Trees
Video: 'Four Day Straight'
Highlight: "When there's a camera on every phone and more than 24 hours' worth of footage uploaded to YouTube every single minute, creating content is easy, but making art that rises from the static is as difficult as ever," Jason M. Harper of Scattered Trees tells Spinner. "With a good film, we actually move closer to (and come to terms with) reality through this 'once-removed' world on the screen. We're proud to announce the winning director of the Scattered Trees FourPlay music video competition -- Markus Kneer. His treatment for the video was ambitious, which made us both excited and anxious that with the tight time constriction he might not be able to achieve what he saw in his head. In the end, he and his team exceeded our expectations."
