ROME, MARCH 14, 2012 (Zenit.org).- A group seeking to give visibility to new artists and at the same time build a culture of life has released a music video celebrating motherhood.
«Beside You» was released this month, as the official debut of Music Visions. Music Visions is a non-profit aiming to produce values-oriented music.
Filmed in Rome, and written and performed by Mario Maneri, «Beside You» is directed by Manuel de Teffé and features Giulia Perelli and Gian Marco Tavani.
A statement from Music Visions noted: «We chose this field because music video is by far the most popular content on the Internet: of YouTube’s global top 20 most watched content of all time — in all categories — 16 are music videos. We are talking about more than 4 billion viewers.
«The social impact of music video via YouTube and other channels is undeniable and yet sadly today’s music video culture no longer respects the dignity of the human person. Hundreds of millions of young people spend the most formative years of their lives watching music videos which often promote an openly destructive lifestyle. No space seems to be left for other artists who, despite their talent, cannot share their music simply for the lack of a well-produced music video. Music Visions would like to change that.
