Area 51 "Killing of the Innocents" - Official Music Video
2Whilst doing some tidying up I came across an old DVD-R that had some of the short films and videos that I made whilst in College.
A couple of mates of mine where in a band and I was their official photographer and would often take photos and promos for the band.
This is one of the music videos that I made for the band when they were known as "Area 51". The music video is for a song they performed called "Killing of the Innocents" which I put together alongside the Bass player, Carl Brookes.
We had the idea of filling the music video with as many scenes of violence and death as possible, so there's a number of clips here from popular Anime at the time such as Akira, Fist of the North Star, Crying Freeman, Mad Bull 34 and many others.
There's also a number of clips from such movies as Independence Day, Demolition Man and others alongside footage of the band jamming in the local park - and playing dress up and pretending to kill each other!
It's entirely possible that this music video might end up getting a couple of copyright claims, so a number of re-edits and re-uploads might be needed at some point. I myself have changed a couple of bits and pieces from the original for this reason.
I tried to get hold of a better quality sound for the video - this was originally recorded on a cassette. Unfortunately the master version of this song was on a Sony Minidisc (Jesus, now we ARE showing our age!) which has since been lost to the mists of time. So I've attempted to tweak the audio and video as best I can.
So enjoy, as this blast from the past comes onto YouTube for the very first time!
