I saw some discussion about a possible music video in yesterdays show topic....since I found some info a couple days ago on Twitter regarding the Pre-Production of the video, thought I'd share:

Director: Jake Davis

[lydia]

YES!!!! SO EXCITED!!!!!! 
We're getting a video for Carousel!! Which means it really is her first single!!! 

[WhiteRabbit]

You guys always amaze me at how fast you are at finding this information haha. I'm so excited about this news though  I bet the video will be so beautiful!! Aghh I CANT FREAKING WAIT!!

[lydia]

I'm sure the video will be great!! How do you picture the video?
I see Vanessa riding a carousel, of course... and then some white rabbits running around. 

[Pushglow]

Nice find! The director has already some nice music videos.

[LadyLavender]

This is so exciting! I was wondering what her first single was going to be. We should check for casting info and see if we can get a good Nessaholics showing in the video

And it's been confirmed........

Yay for Carousel!

OMG this is great.  I can't believe it's finally all happening.  The wait is almost over!

I think that there should obviously be a carousel, maybe open and close with one, but it shouldn't be the main focus.  I also think that the rabbits shouldn't be in your face, just kind of a side thing, kind of hidden.  I like videos that make you think, and aren't just someone sitting there singing into the camera, so hopefully there is more of a story line to watch.  We'll see!

Carousel's a good single choice. Without having heard the studio arrangement it is hard to say what kind of popular appeal it will have on that end, but the song itself has a feel people can get behind.

[joey]

I want a "story" video... you know? The type with actors and a mini story behind it?
Maybe multiple ones... Cos the song is SUPER feel good... Just thinking ;-)

[nutnlp]

i think having a carousel in the video would be cheesy unless its in an artful way...i just hope its an abundance of love stories and how they shape you....a theme vanessa seems to be singing about a lot since h&t.

I just want her and a piano -- it's kind of her thing. C: She's done it in most of her videos, and I feel like taking that and replacing it with a carousel would be a step backwards for her.

BUT I'M SO EXCITED ASDFJSDLSADASDSGSFHL.

Well, a rabbit on a piano, on a red traveling-carousel and Lord Victor who runs after it
