ALW's facebook page says that Danielle is filming the video to Over The Rainbow today. Does anyone know when it will be released? Can't wait to see what it will be like. This series has been very X-Factor like, recording a single, releasing it at midnight on Itunes, wildcards, mentors etc.

Didn't they record a single and release a music video for any dream will do too?

I hope Danielle's video isn't as cheesy as Lee's was!

I love Lee, and I liked the "retrospective of his journey on the show" aspect of the video, but those special effects were quite over-the-top.

In fairness, they had very little time to do it (there were only about five weeks from the ADWD final to the official opening night of Joseph). Lee filmed the video the day after the ADWD final, and it would have been logistically impossible for him to film in different locations, given that all the filming had to be completed in one day (Joseph rehearsals began the following day). Therefore, a lot of 'green screen' effects were used to compensate. Also, Joseph is a 'cartoony' musical, so the effects, garish as they are, are in keeping with the show.

Incidentally, watching both Lee's and Connie's Winner's Story documentaries gives you a real idea of just how crazy their schedules were. Lee had five weeks to prepare (actually less than that, since there were a week and a half of previews prior to opening night) and Connie had eight weeks (probably more like six and a half). Lee also did the Diana concert during the five weeks leading up to Joseph opening night! It really was crazy, and I still don't know how Lee and Connie managed it, but manage it, they did!

I'm glad they seem to be giving the winners much more sensible schedules (and coaching in acting/singing/dancing) now. It gives them time to iron out any kinks in their performance skills and get much needed experience prior to starting work on their 'prize' show (Jodie did a short run in the ensemble of Les Mis and did a course at RADA before starting work on Oliver!).

It'll be interesting to see what kind of video they come up with for Danielle. I suspect it will be something along the lines of ADWD, but then again, they might surprise us.

This will be interesting, I was was wondering what she'd be filling her days with until rehearsals start.

I'm presuming that it will most probably be like Jade Ewen's It's My Time video.
Can't wait to see it. I hope they do a few touches to the final notes of the song, so that it sounds more powerful

The Telephone music video was filmed in two days, so that's rubbish.

Lee had one day to film his video. He was a first-timer, on a limited budget and with a limited time available to film his live action scenes. They had to get everything 'live action' done in that one day. Hence coming up with a video that was pretty much all done using green screen and clips from ADWD.
