lose our shirts in the fire tonight

Came across this video from we are the masses.. The description from their website says it best..

"Hunter’s Hide‘ is the majestic new work from director Benjamin Kutsko.  Filmed entirely in wilds of Big Sur, CA, this is first official video for the band, Fawnhawk.  The origin of Kutsko’s vision stems from a walk through a mossy green forest.  He imagined Peticia, the lead singer of Fawnhawk, walking through the landscape in a red cloak.  Inspired by the song’s lyrics, Kutsko began to weave together a story about the hunter and the prey and innocence lost.  The unique aspect of this video is the care and excellence of it’s execution and the completeness of the director’s vision.  The impeccable images shot by cinematographer David Myrick are worthy of a great Russian film.  You can sense Kutsko’s discerning eye in the heartfelt performances from Wyatt Denny and the child actors.  Casting the wolves just right was another important detail that lead Kutsko and producer Jack Richardson to The Shadowland Foundation, a non-profit organization that  allows children to safely interact with the beautiful creatures.  The Shadowland Foundation moto actually mirrors the sentiment of Kutsko’s story :




“Everything we have created has been designed with children in mind. They are the pioneers and guardians of our future and armed with the truth, we know, they will certainly bring peace and harmony to our planet, forever. We see this happening in our lifetime.”
