SAMA nominated outfit Graeme Watkins Project are pleased that their new hit single "Fly

Away", taking off on both national and regional radio stations around the country.

After winning 8 award categories at the 48 Hour MVP Awards late last year for the

music video"Fly Away", including Best Music Video Award, Best Song, Best Lyrics, Best

Performance, Best VFX, Best Cinematography and Best Directing, the band felt that the

single selection was pretty obvious.

Graeme Watkins Project in collaboration with Any Minute Now Films paired up for a frantic

weekend of creativity in which they make a music video from scratch, from concept to post-
production -- all within 48 hours.

"This fantastic team gave their time and formidable skills for free to be involved in a crazy

weekend at the craziest time of year", says director Julia Smuts Louw. "The result was worth

all the hard work: FLY AWAY became a poignant, surreal story of a love that transcends the

boundaries between life and death."

The video will go on to compete internationally at Filmapalooza in New Orleans against the

winning offerings from other competing cities around the world later this year.

"After a weekend of mayhem we could not be happier with the product. Highlight of the

shoot was attending a radio interview in the middle of the ambulance scene shoot. It was

already pre booked and the DJ was so shocked. It was loads of fun, and the crew really

pulled it out the bag. This is a super proud moment for us." -- Graeme Watkins
