YouTube presents the world premiere of the music video for "Pull Me Out Alive" by Kaki King, the lead single from Kaki's new album, Dreaming Of Revenge, available March 11, 2008 in stores and online. The video was made without film cameras -- it consists of over 5,000 still photographs shot on Nikon D30s. There are no special effects; all of the light trails were created by hand, with up to eight individual "light animators" flashing LEDs and flashlights on and off over a long (8 second) shot exposure. The video was shot in NYC over five very cold, 16 hour days in January. Special thanks to Eddie & Doug at Chop Wood Carry Water, the talented crew, all the actors & extras, Rockwood Music Hall, Jamie Proctor, YouTube and especially all Kaki's fans who came to NYC from as far away as Virginia.
We'll be posting a "making of" video on YouTube shortly.
