From the fanclub:

We have just shot a video for "The Chronicles Of Life And Death". It is our first time shooting a completely animated video. The artwork is based on Billy's drawing in the album cover of a little boy chained to a robot. Together they show us the trials and tribulations of life as we know it. Here is a sample from the video shoot of Joel singing to a blue screen. The computer graphics will be added in later. Also there are some completely rough sketches of the storyboard. Stay tuned to the website to get one of the first viewings of the finalized video.

Attention Fanclub members in the US. The "Chronicles Of Life And Death" video will only be released overseas. Stay tuned because in the next few weeks, you will be able to see it right here. More details to come.
Here's two sketches, and fanclub members can view a clip of Joel singing in front of a blue screen at the fanclub site.

Ok, so we all know that today is GC's 10 aniversary!!! Click here if you wanna say something to the guys! Good Charlotte's 10th Aniversary Project
i have the scoop on the new videos! The U.S gets 'We Believe' while the U.K gets 'Chronicles" then it will switch. So heres the treatment for 'We Believe' enjoy!
In the video — shooting Friday at Los Angeles' Orpheum Theatre — the band takes the stage in an abandoned playhouse and performs the song while images of war and human suffering play on a movie screen behind it. It's a far cry from the Fruit of the Loom antics Good Charlotte deployed for their last clip ("Good Charlotte Mock Their Rich And Famous Selves In 'I Just Wanna Live' Clip"), but as director Sam Erickson explains, it was important to the band that the video stay loyal to the song's serious themes.
"We worked hard to make sure that the video isn't just a piece of fluff. The song mentions a woman who lost her kid and a war that no one cares about, so it was important to all of us that those themes come across," he said. "The band says in the song that 'we believe in love between people,' so that has to be conveyed too. They want the video to make people think a little bit."
As the song builds, the images on the screen begin to change, as the scenes of destruction and sadness (think newsreel footage of the Iraqi war and South Asian tsunami) are replaced with photos of cities being rebuilt and people of all ages and colors holding hands. The scene then shifts from the abandoned theater to city squares around the world, where protestors are linking arms and raising signs that read "We Believe."
"Things start to become more hopeful, and we have people of all ages and ethnicities responding to the song," Erickson said. "They're holding up signs in all different languages and holding candlelight vigils. It reflects exactly what the song is about : having hope and faith in a world where so many terrible things happen."
The video cuts back to the playhouse, which is now filling with light. As the song reaches its climax, it becomes apparent that Good Charlotte aren't performing to an audience of screaming fans, rather, it's a packed house of candles. The light of the candles represents, as Erickson puts it, "the power of people coming together."
"It takes the energy of Good Charlotte's big, grand performance and kicks it to another level," he said. "We want the video to be simple, but also gorgeous and evocative. Hopefully, it's a video that makes people feel better, too."

Unfortunatly GC didnt win the veiwers choice awards, Why? Because Linkin Park fans cheated! That's not fair is it? I think not at all! So GC fans made a petition! Go and sign it! It's important for us, fans! We've been cheated by LP fans, GC has been cheated and maybe LP too. So go do something against it! Go sign this petition! GC will be happy to see their fans doing this, even though it may not help but hey, we are trying, right?! Sign please!! there IS proof there are like 4 thousand signitures already, we need more!!! GC are the ones who DO deserve it even though linkin park is a great band GC was winning by 30 percent, amazing how lp won isnt it?!? we need to get the award BACK to GC!!!! help us out, even if you arent that big of a GC fan, atleast think about it and remember: THERE IS PROOF!
GC didn't win any other awards either! But we know that they deserved it but MTV wasn't that opinion, sadly enough! But oh well... let's wait till next year... the new album is comming and we will show you what a great band Good Charlotte is!!! and please, dont say anything bad about LP, it is the fans u should say something bad about! it isnt LP's fault, LP is a great band, but the award is for good charlotte
SIGN PETITION NOW!
