Music Video + Young Spielberg + Bad Atari Game = Intriguing

A Band called Wintergreen has released a music video directed by Keith Schofield to there song called, "When I Wake Up". The video features the members of the band playing a classic Atari 2600 game, E.T. which was was so terrible that the makers of the game thought it would be a good idea to bury the unsold copies in a landfill.

The video shows a little bit of the story behind the game and their adventure finding the buried copies. This is an example of how many types of medias are comming together. A TV music video that tells the story of a legacy video game is available to anyone online. Props to Mr. Schofield and Wintergreen. I enjoyed the piece.
