Watanabes’ “Documentary” Online

Posted by nabes on August 20th, 2009

The Watanabes are very proud to present their new video for 20 Percent Chance.

Directed by Aaron Jenkin, 20 Percent Chance features on The Watanabes debut album Independent Social Power which is now available on ITunes (worldwide) and at stores across Japan such as HMV, Tower Records and Disk Union.

Aaron Jenkin is professional video editor and film director who has been involved with commercials, movies and of course music videos for bands such as Chicago based  Track a Tiger. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Aaron for all of his hard work, expertise and generosity, and we feel extremely fortunate to have been able to work with him: Not only is Mr. Jenkin an incredibly talented chap, but also a gentlemen in the truest sense!

A lot of other people helped us with this video, not least Hayase Yamagishi who was always on hand for translation and cultural advice. Our thanks to everyone involved!

Hope you  enjoy it!
