White explains how the video came together:
“We did our research with the applications( 应用程序) and found applications that worked out really well with the instruments and then we plugged them all into, plugged our phones into mini-battery powered amplifiers(扩音器) that we put underneath our seats, and we did a lot of, you know, practices, in terms of figuring out what the balance of the sound and like who was overpowering, who was too loud or who was too soft.”
The idea for the video came from Espiritu's younger brother Benjamin. The younger Espiritu directed the video from his initial concept through the final edit and upload to the Internet.
“I’ ve seen a lot of the music applications come out, and I’ ve never actually had the chance to play with them,” says Ben Espiritu. “When I started hearing about how they sound and everything, I thought it might be unique to take it one step further and then create an entire band just performing solely(单曲) on the iPhones, and I thought it would be a pretty cool idea.”
Ben says the success of the band’ s music video is a credit to the talent and ability of the musicians, but it’s also a sign of the times.
“It really comes down to seeing something different, seeing something unique, and I think that that’ s always, in any type of art form, what will speak to people, and I think it does reflect the times that we live in, taking a smart phone and then being able to turn it into an instrument, not only just an instrument, but making it sound really good.”
