Switchfoot - Meant To Live (Jon Bellion Version) [Official Music Video]

Official Music Video For Switchfoot - Meant To Live (Jon Bellion Version) A few months ago, the band and I sat down in the studio to listen to the final mix of the song, (“Meant to Live - Jon Bellion Version”). When the strings faded out we sat in silence, stunned by how moving the piece of music was. A few days later, Jon Bellion and I were texting about the song —how it conjured images in our minds, begging to be used in a trailer for a great movie. We came to the conclusion: “why not do it ourselves, spend our own money to make a music video that felt like it conveyed the emotion we felt.” We called James Winterhalter and Joseph Larkin (the makers of the video) to see if they could pull off a short film in only a couple of weeks. They said let’s go! So that’s what this music video is: a self-funded passion project. A short film about a man, caught between his past and his future, discovering that he still gets to choose. “We want more than the wars of our fathers… Somewhere we live inside. - Jon Foreman of Switchfoot Production Company: KURSZA Director - James Winterhalter Executive Producer/Creative Director - Joseph Larkin Producer: Michael Tate Director of Photography: Matt Burke 1st AC: Eduardo Orozco Gaffer: Vincent Carlston Grip: Eric Hinsperger Hair/makeup: Karen Cordell Production Assistant: Haden Peterson Acting: Father - Jason Zacek Grandfather - Rick Sadle Son - Gus Cereghino Special Thanks: The City of Newport, Yaquina Bay Charters, Oregon Film Follow Switchfoot here: Facebook: Twitter: Instagram: Tik-Tok: YouTube: Spotify: Apple Music:
