Selena's voice was like a baby. It's so cuteee.
Hey, I'm Selena Gomez and you're behind the scenes of my new music video for A Year Without Rain.
The song that we're doing the video for today is called A Year Without Rain and it's actually the title of my second album.
It's a very special song to me. It's a very personal song.
It's about having that one person that you really can't live without and you miss them and you either lost them or you don't have them anymore.
I think the whole video makes those lyrics as vivid as possible and we brought it to life.
Well, the music video is taking place in the desert, which I don't really know where it's at.
I know it's two hours away because I was sleeping the entire way here.
We had to leave the house at three in the morning and then we came on set at five.
I think it's great to start strong.
Okay.
Let's see how it feels.
Perfect.
Sounds good.
Hey, I'm Chris Dooley. We're out here at the soggy, dry lake bed in beautiful Victorville, California, shooting A Year Without Rain, new Selena Gomez video.
The treatment involves her on her way to meet somebody who's really important to her.
I daydream in my car with my band and I see a picture that brings me back to a place and reminds me of a person and kind of takes me into my imagination.
Basically winds up fantasizing having this sort of dreamscape where she has these sort of surreal, almost ethereal experiences.
I finally am able to kind of imagine him back in my life and the rain starts coming down.
So it's really pretty and I think that it fit perfectly with the song and it's exactly what I wanted to say.
Play the music.
Rolling.
Rolling, rolling.
The stars are burning.
I hear your voice in my mind.
Can't you hear me calling?
Excellent.
We just finished up Selena's beauty performance.
The dress was fantastic.
The dress was flowing the way we needed it to.
She worked it beautifully.
It's a great performance.
I'm really thrilled with what we just got.
We're moving to our car setup.
She's driving across the desert with her band, The Scene.
Hello, I'm Greg.
I play drums.
I'm Joey.
I play bass for The Scene.
Ethan.
I play guitar.
Dane.
I play keys.
So we're going to reenact a year without rain here in the wide open space desert.
Hey guys, we are in the car with Joey driving.
You're going to drive safe.
We will drive as safe as I feel at that point in time.
Alright Joey, go for it.
Don't know if it's a mirage but I always see your face.
Alright guys, that's lunch.
One hour.
Just got back from lunch so we're setting up our photo drop.
It's going to be a photo storm.
We're going to rain down photos over Selena.
So we're going to do this whole thing with pictures flying everywhere of memories of
someone that you think of and kind of tying the whole song together.
The idea is it's sort of evocative of missing somebody.
Somebody that you sort of can't be with.
Rolling.
A day without you is like a year without rain.
Beautiful.
That's awesome.
So it is four o'clock now and it's getting hotter by the hour.
And it's going really well so far.
We're doing a lot of the picture stuff and I probably got hit by pictures lots of times.
But it's really fun.
It looks really pretty.
So next we're going to be doing the rain which I'm very excited about because this is what
we've been waiting for.
And I'm probably more excited to do the rain because I'm hot and that will cool me down.
But I think it's going to be perfect and it's going to go very well with the video.
Can't wait.
I think you guys should sort of get close.
We'll do some double coverage here.
So we'll have you approaching her, her approaching you.
And then we'll see you guys sort of coming closer together.
This is the big one.
We're setting up for our rain shot.
And have her performing.
It's just started raining.
Her and her person she's been wanting to meet, the person she's been daydreaming about are
within yards of each other.
As they get closer it starts to rain harder until they're right next to each other and
it's just pouring down rain.
Our last shot.
I'm going to get wet.
Alright here we go then.
Well the rain was a lot colder which is pretty ironic considering I was really hot today.
But it was very worth it because I think the video is going to be really nice and I hope
you guys like it.
It's a wrap and I'm done and I'm going to go get warm now.
Thank you guys so much for hanging out with me behind the scenes.
I hope you like the video.
I'll see you guys later.
Bye.
