Dianna Agron (Glee) Directed Video For Thao Debuts Today At OxfamAmerica.org
———————————————————————————————-The new video from Thao with the Get Down Stay Down, “Body”, directed by Dianna Agron (Quinn Fabray from Fox’s “Glee”) will debut today exclusively at Oxfam America’s website. Oxfam America is an international relief and development organization that creates lasting solutions to poverty and hunger. The video can only be viewed at www.oxfamamerica.org/thao for the next week, before it is made available more widely. The video also features a candid (and funny) three-minute spoken introduction from Dianna and Thao, giving fans some insight into their friendship, Thao’s work with Oxfam, and how the video came to be. As Thao explains: “Last winter, Dianna contacted me to see about directing her first music video for my band. I so readily agreed, the internet could not deliver my consent fast enough, and we met one day on Skype while I was on tour in Europe and Dianna was on set. “Body” (from the band’s latest record Know Better Learn Faster) was shot on Valentine’s Day on Dianna’s bed. Dianna and I offered the exclusive premiere to Oxfam America in hopes of directing traffic to Oxfam’s site and encouraging action to support Oxfam’s efforts, particularly on behalf of the world’s poorest, who are hit hardest by the effects of climate change.” Thao has worked with Oxfam America for more than 3 years and is an ambassador for the Sisters on the Planet Campaign (http://www.oxfamamerica.org/campaigns/climate-change/sisters-on-the-planetwww.oxfamamerica.org/thao for the next week, before it is made available more widely.
