‘Behind The Mask’ Video
The idea for a video for the release of ‘Behind The Mask,’ from the album ‘Michael’ has really worked amazingly well.
The ‘Behind the Mask’ video project was launched earlier this year when Michael’s fans were invited to send in footage of themselves, performing to the song. Fans from all over the world have taken part paying tribute to Michael, some sing, some dance, many are dressed in Michael clothing, some pose, literally, behind a mask.
Dennis Liu has compiled the video from 1,600 shots from 103 countries, into a four and a half minute video.”(It’s) the most exciting and most fun project I think I’ve ever been involved in,” the director said.
The video was launched yesterday on Youtube and Face Book, and seems to have solved the problem of producing a posthumous video for the single.
Comments on Youtube have been complimentary about the fan-made video, and many fans are ecstatic about taking part.
On Facebook where the video was premiered it says;
