South African Music Award nominee

Hello. So I was recently nominated for ‘Best Music Video’ in the 20th South African Music Awards (SAMAs) for my animated music video for Goldfish’s song ‘One Million Views‘. Schweet. This is the third time I’ve been nominated, strangely enough (or perhaps not surprisingly) this time I really didn’t try to pander towards being nominated for a SAMA but it happened, so that’s nice. The event involves a night or two at Sun City; a kind of glitzy resort in the South African bush, and there’s an awesome water-park there which is kind of why I was hoping to go.

In any event, it’s an honour and privilege to be nominated as one of the 5 best South Africa music videos of the year. Congrats to all the other nominees and I hope those that weren’t nominated don’t take this too seriously.

The rest of the nominees are here.

Here’s the music video in question:

As a side, if you’re in the mood for some psychological food for thought, my wise mother posts fairly regularly at her blog ‘Garden of Eden Blog‘ and gets far more comments on her posts than I ever do.
