Hope.
Hope is something that lives within all of us, somewhere; sometimes to be unseen until a moment of surprise or better a moment we've been expecting for a long time.
Daniel has been one of my closest friends since elementary school and although we've been discussing ideas for a music video since his EP's conception last year, nothing felt more right than what fell together this past month.
The concept for 'Hope In Tomorrow' came from the idea that hope is simple. It's nearly binary: on and off. You can have hope or none at all there lies very little room for space between. So here, is a story of a girl who lost hope from within herself, she is left stranded with no urge to find a direction home. She visualizes the positives in her life, almost like staring at an old photograph; something that once existed but now only holds a hearts beat through the memory. It's clear that the negatives get the best of her, and are carried daily. The stones create this balance in her life but the scale is tipping towards fear of being alone, or remaining misplaced. This day though, ignites a spark to make a change, to only see the positives from here forward, casting her burdens into the ocean.
Hope can be found, obtained, given, created, and shared; even lost. But hope can never be extinguished completely. Only then is the human spirit broken and split into peril.
We all have decisions to make, every day. We can choose to let the demons within overpower our emotions, or let the beautiful mess that is life unfold and take everything as it comes. Don't let the darkness of night scare you into thinking the sun will not rise come morning.
Directed by Myself and Michael Garcia, it was a pleasure to create something that could hopefully inspire a peace of mind for those in need. You are not alone I promise you this.
