Concept
After seeing his child/children disobey him, fall off the bed and
break his/her arm, he begins reminiscing of his adolescence and
tells the story of his past mistakes to his children, as a cautionary
tale.
3
Kaleb sees his kids jumping on the bed,
he tells them to stop jumping. They
continue to jump and one child falls off
the bed and breaks their arm. We see
Kaleb and his wife gathering the kids
into bed, one is seen with a cast on their
arm. To teach his kids the importance
of listening, Kaleb begins a tale of his
life of hard knocks, beginning with his
mother asking him not to jump on his
bed, the scar from his broken arm and
learning the hard way.
4
An actor portraying Kaleb in his
early 20s is seen bringing his
girlfriend home to meet the
parents. His father tells him she’s
not the one. Kaleb shrugs off his
father hand on his shoulder. Flash
forward to Kaleb going to see his
girlfriend with flowers, to his
surprise, he sees Becky kissing
Johnny, she sees him see her, and
tries to run to him. He throws
down the flowers and walks away
heartbroken. He learned the hard
way.
5
Actor Kaleb goes drinking with
friends to forget. He gets too drunk
and his friends try to take his keys,
but he shrugs them off and gets
into his car. As he’s driving drunk,
he sees a Georgia State trooper
flashing blue lights in his rear-view
mirror. He is seen blowing into a
breathalyser and being arrested.
Kaleb can be seen singing and
playing his guitar in the
background as the scene unfolds.
6
We see actor Kaleb going through the
process of fingerprints and mug
shots, his parents seeing him behind
bars, and bailing him out.
Flashforward to him in court,
pleading guilty to the DUI
charge, being ordered to community
service and its completion, in a
volunteer vest. As the montage of the
sentencing begins, Kaleb is seen
outside underneath a lamppost,
during the foggy evening or night, as
he plays his guitar solo.
7
The video concludes with the
children deciding to listen from
now on, to keep from learning
the hard way and Kaleb ending
his tale as he puts them to bed.
That's all folks.
8
Differentiating Factor
Everyone has been given wise advice on
whether to do something or not, that could
have negative consequences and could possibly
lead us to pain, but sometimes you just have to
learn the hard way.

Distribution Strategy
Based on Kaleb's 2,164 Instagram followers, 175 YouTube subscribers, and 3,464
Facebook followers and "likes", we anticipate this video to be viewed at least 5,803 x. We
will roll out the music video across all social media platforms of cast and crew, to
increase these estimates. Kaleb prefers YouTube, so we will create a real time countdown
clock on his YouTube page, announcing the drop of the music video to his new single,
“The Hard Way.” Kaleb will release stills from pre-production across Facebook, YouTube,
and Instagram, a couple of weeks before the video drop to build anticipation. The video
will premiere one day after editing.
