Movies You Made: “Ghost is the Memory” by Jake Gott

From filmmaker Jake Gott:

I wanted to share with you a narrative music video I wrote, directed, acted in and edited for my brother’s band. I took the lyrics from his song and crafted a story around it that I think is pretty effective.

Here is the 5-minute narrative music video of “Ghost Is The Memory” by Egg Plant:

More on Jake:

I’m a writer/director from Portland, OR. I mostly stick to writing screenplays at the present, but I’ve also had two full-length plays produced here in Portland. Heroes include: Kubrick, Coppola, Kazan, Charlie Kaufman, Alan Ball, Eric Roth and many others. My only writing philosophy is to entertain.

“Pick up a camera. Shoot something. No matter how small, no matter how cheesy, no matter whether your friends and your sister star in it. Put your name on it as director. Now you’re a director. Everything after that you’re just negotiating your budget and your fee.”

— James Cameron
