Kurt Scobie (www.kurtscobie.com) and the team at Three Ring Media (www.threeringmedia.com) are bringing a visual element to Kurt's song "Your Crash". Follow the progress at www.RocketHub.com and support this creative endeavor! There are different rewards

I wrote "Your Crash" in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. When I heard about what so many people went through, I was very moved by the devastation and this song came about. I have had incredible feedback from fans over the past few years, and I am proud to be able to expand more on the music and lyrics with a visual element!
I will be working with the awesome team at Three Ring Media to complete this project and bring you a high quality, high definition experience. The music video will feature a NEW recording of "Your Crash" produced by the talented Jake Rye of Sonus Clarus Media Group.
I am very excited about the possibilities of this music video. Between the videographers, producers and myself, I believe we can really create something amazing for people to enjoy and share. I hope you'll join me and follow the process. It is going to be a FUN learning experience for me and everyone involved.
The money will be used to cover gas/food (for off-site shoots), hire actors, and offset production and editing costs. If I exceed the minimun amount, the additional funds will be used to give gifts & tips to those who are volunteering their time and resources.
Some things you should know:
1. RocketHub is not an investment or charity. It is an exchange: funds from fans for rewards from me.
2. It's all or nothing: if I don't reach my financial goal, you get your money back
3. There is a wide range of rewards. Whether your wallet is bursting at the seams or you are scrapped for cash you can help. Any amount counts!
Thanks for all of your support! Make sure you check back in and see how the campaign is progressing.
