Kristian Valen – Still Here

As everything Kristian does this is also based on a true story. Kristian wrote the song after a kid he knew died of cancer at the age of 4. At the hospital he met a guy who just had lost his girlfriend in a car accident. Kristian called up this guy a little bit later on and asked if it was ok to use his story and combine it with his own experiences from the past in his first video that he would dedicate to the person who past away.

Directed by Kristian Valen and Allan Fiterman (Mr. Fiterman did it as a favour when he heard about the story behind the video. At first he did not want to "lower himself" to do a music video, but then someone close to him was diagnosed with cancer also....then he called in some favours from Hollywood and directed it with Kristian).

Shot on 19 locations in L.A. over 3 days, stunt people and special effects professionals who have worked on pictures such as Titanic, Pearl Harbour, X-Men, Desperado, Mission impossible (Go to : stuntsunlimited.com for more info on what they have worked on) and also picture editing from the same team as The DaVinci Code and almost all Aerosmith videos. (The reason Kristian picked him was because of his colors in the Aerosmith videos.)

This video (as everything Kristian does) was financed by Kristian Valen.
