Watch The Animated Video For “Newfound View.”
After about a year in the making of frame-by-frame animation, the music video for “Newfound View” is complete! A big thanks to Emily Fritze for all the hard work. It’s not easy being a freelancer in the city. Enjoy!
Animated Video Progress.
As you may have recalled in one of my previous posts from last year, the ever so talented Emily Fritze of Minneapolis is working hard on creating a music video for “Newfound View.” We are both very excited about it and can’t wait to share it with the world. We both crafted a cool story that will unfold throughout this imaginary world where strange creatures exists.
Emily has really outdone herself and has spent numerous hours crafting the art and animation being used and I always tell her “I wish I had your artistic drawing ability.” You can say I am a fan of her style and originality. The thing is, when I draw something that I am thinking about, no matter how hard I try, it NEVER looks right. Even after trying for almost 2 years as a kid growing up. She has a talent that’s for sure, one that she works on constantly and all the hard work / hours she puts in shows it. In fact, she created my band logo, helped with my album art and most of the art seen throughout this site.
Below shows a transition scene for the work-in-progress video, “Newfound View.”
Look for the music video in the coming months. In the meantime check out EMILY’S ANIMATION BLOG and WEBSITE.

First Practices Underway.
Over a month ago I posted an ad seeking additional band members to join Perry Project. After numerous interviews from interested musicians I found 4 awesome, and talented individuals that shared the same passion and vision.
Yesterday we had our first practice as a band and it could not have gone any better. Everyone was in agreement that it exceeded all expectations and are looking forward to the next practice.
This is a huge milestone for the project as it keeps the vision alive. All we need now (as far as members) is a capable keyboard player to finalize the sound and to add that extra bit of polish we are looking for.
More updates to follow.
