'Sleeping Awake' was actually shot in about a total of 4 hours, and for filming, that's extremely fast. And because of all the special effects, it took about 15 hours to edit this film and get it perfected. Unfortunately, due to a computer crash, they lost the original Sleeping Awake video with perfect quality. So, now they are left with this one version, which doesn't have the greatest quality.
'Sleeping Awake' has been a music video that Ben has been waiting to do for the longest time. He and Stevie had already tried doing it one time but it turned out to be the pits. So then Nathan Miller, who lip syncs the song, came up with some of the core ideas for this music video and helped direct it on the set. Unfortunately some of the shots with Nathan singing didn't turn out as great as planned just because of poor lighting. Due to some of the Matrix clips in this film, some content may not be suitable for all audiences. But don't worry, there's no sexual content or blood.
