We’ve just reviewed the first draft of the Thunderbolt music video and find it totally unacceptable. It must be redone to our specifications. We made it clear that our target is the MTV set, who demand over-the-top entertainment, and indicated the sample clips from the Indigos were similar to what we wanted. Instead, you send us a simplistic video of nothing more than live-concert footage of the band. Call us immediately to schedule re-shooting of the entire video.

Seeks attention by giving sincere compliment that reveals subject of message When Thunderbolt negotiated with your firm to produce our first music video, we were impressed with the clips of other Harrelson videos and your proven performance record. Especially intriguing to us was your video of the Indigos, with its subtle use of symbolism in the graphic images along with creative shots of the musicians. In our meeting with your creative team, we focused on the methods used in the Indigos video and specifically asked for graphic symbolism juxtaposed with shots of the band. After viewing the first draft of our video, we find the level of artistic expression disappointing. This video closely resembles a concert tape, focusing primarily on live-concert footage of the band and will have little appeal with our customers, the MTV set, who demand innovative and exciting new approaches in entertainment. With Harrelson’s reputation for creative productions, we are confident the video can be revised to meet our expectations. The band will do its part to assist in reshooting footage and will meet with the creative director at a mutually convenient time to discuss the kind of graphic imagery appropriate for interpreting our music and its message. Please call me at to schedule this meeting.
