"Rose Parade" is a music video tribute to Elliott Smith. The video was shot to accompany the documentary: "Rose Parade: An Atlanta Fan Documentary for Elliott Smith." These two films will comprise Atlanta's representation in "Future Butterflies, an international fan documentary currently being made by Elliott Smith lovers from around the world.
Atlanta local Karla Jean Davis wrote and directed the video and first-time film exposer William Whittenburg III was the cinematographer. This is also the small screen debut of local model/actress Morgan Underwood. The music video attempts to capture both the musician and the song in a sort of pop narrative.
The documentary was directed by Karla Davis and shot by Jason Thurmond, local 24-P DP extrordinare, and includes interviews with local Atlanta-area fans and 88.5 WRAS, as well as an interview with Double D Records founder Dave Dickerson from Nashville, TN, responsible for the recent Elliott tribute CD release entitled: "A Fond Farewell."
