THE COPS DON'T KNOW

Sam has been busy promoting his new music video lately. Since we haven't posted the video here we thought to update the blog with the great news on the latest Video Sam has directed.
Here's Sam's message about his new video "The Cops Don't Know"

"It is my great pleasure to announce our collaboration with Made In Soho records on Sir Lenny Henry's "The Cops Don't Know" official animated music video. The video is exclusively premiered on the prestigious Classic Rock Magazine's website and is also available on YouTube. I feel very honored and fortunate to have had the chance to collaborate with legendary artists , Sir Lenny Henry and Jakko Jakszyk and our wonderful producer, great Chris Porter, on this project. I would like to thank everyone who collaborated with us in the making of this Music Video from the wonderful Music Department to the animation cast and crew, Made In Soho records and everyone who helped us to make this video happen.
Let us remember those who have lost their lives in brutal unfair events all over the world from any background and ethnics and let us wish for more love, peace and justice on our planet earth, for which we do starve these days, more than anytime in the history of humanity.

Best wishes,
Sam Chegini
Director"
