Director Patricio Ginelsa's Music Video Staring Bambu to Appear During Grammy Awards

Article from Paloma Belara 

Patricio Ginelsa (Kid Heroes Productions) is the winning director for a music video entry “Love (Cupid Style)”. The video will premiere this Sunday night as a thirty-second commercial during the CBS broadcast of the Grammy Awards. The commercial will air during telecast which begins 8pm Eastern and Pacific Time this Sunday, February 8.

The commercial will then prompt viewers to visit a CBS website to watch the online premiere of the full five-minute version of the music video.

The video is one of five winners, all part of a huge national ad campaign called “PROJECT RISING STARS”. Lincoln, Y&R Team Detroit, and Filmaka, a global creative community, are helping up-and-coming filmmakers realize their dreams with this Lincoln Music Video Challenge.
More than 300 submissions were received, with 14 Semi-Finalists. Each video will include a song from an emerging artist, and will highlight the 2009 Lincoln MKS luxury sedan.

The video features the song “LOVE” by Greyboy (featuring Nino Moschella). I have to admit it was the most grueling shoot I’ve ever completed, but also the most exhilarating. Did I mention it also features rap artist Bambu as a lead Cupid angel?

Help us spread the word and get all your friends and family members to watch or record the Grammy Awards on CBS this Sunday. Until the official CBS link is announced, visit http://www.kidheroes.net/love for all the central updates, links, photos, and more info!
