Derick G provides the official Behind-The-Scenes look at "God Bless Amerika". There's no flag footage, so anyone looking to Zapruder that segement is out of luck. Instead you get an artful look at the NOLA neighborhood where they shot.
Creating absurdity requires absolute seriousness. To a point. Behind The Scenes director Jarred Alterman lets us walk along "Wishes" video director Eric Wareheim as he orchestrates an insanely odd, yet beautiful celebration of sport.
A great recap of the complexities involved in making director Grady Hall's "history of dance" video for Capital Cities "Safe And Sound."

This Behind-The-Scenes of "Asphyxiation" offers far fewer leering opportunities than you might expect — and they don't explain how some of the shirts here defy physics and remain attached to their torsos (I know: tape) — but, it's a good look at a two day shoot involving lots of balls. (Sorry.)
