面具背後的故事 ( 来源:www.michaeljackson.com http://0rz.tw/eGhMq ) THE WORLD UNITES ON NEW MICHAEL JACKSON VIDEO "BEHIND THE MASK" This spring, the Estate of Michael Jackson and Sony Music gave everyone around the world the opportunity to be a part of Michael Jackson's video legacy with The Behind the Mask Project. This groundbreaking, global online casting call prompted people in all corners of the planet who love Michael Jackson's music to shoot, upload and submit their own unique performances for inclusion in the video; the project elicited an unprecedented response from 103 countries in the world. The director Dennis Liu comments, "This has been the most exciting and fun project I think I've ever been involved in. It's been such a privilege, and was incredibly moving to see so many people from all over the world join as one, their creative voices, dance and musical talents bound together by Michael Jackson's spirit and incomparable artistry. We received submissions from the Sahara Desert to Venice Beach, from mountaintops to suburban backyards, with some shots featuring well over one hundred people apiece. All who participated delivered brilliantly." After submissions poured in from all over the globe they were carefully edited down by the director to the best 1600 submissions (including 50 kids and 36 animals). Technology journalist Natali Morris comments, "Michael Jackson was crowdsourcing his videos before crowdsourcing even existed. This project is a perfect way to honor his connection with his fans." The song "Behind the Mask" is a critic and fan favorite from MICHAEL - the unique collection of songs featuring Michael's performances completed posthumously and released in December by the Michael Jackson Estate and Sony Music. MICHAEL was the #1 global album upon its release in December and has shipped over 3 million units worldwide making it one of the biggest albums of 2010. The album's success continues to underscore Michael's importance as a global icon and superstar, transcending cultures and languages. 全球粉丝齐聚面具背後 今年春季，MJ遗产管理委员和Sony让全世界粉丝有机会成为 "Behind the Mask" MV中 的一份子。这个破天荒的全球线上选角活动召唤了世界每个角落所有歌迷拍摄和上传他 们自己独一无二的表演，成为MV的一部分。这项计画引起全世界103个国家空前热烈的 响应。 导演Dennis Liu评论说："这是我所参与过最令人兴奋和有趣的计画。我很荣幸，也非 常感动可以看到全世界这麽多人合而为一，他们极富创造力的歌声、舞蹈和音乐才华， 透过MJ的精神和无与伦比的艺术成就结合在一起。我们收到从撒哈拉沙漠到威尼斯海滩 ，从山顶到郊外的各种片段，其中有些片段超过100人聚集在一起。所有的参与者都表现 出色。" 来自全世界的视频大量上传後，导演从中挑选了最佳的1600个片段（包括50个孩子和 36只动物）。科技新闻记者Natali Morris评论："MJ一直都以集体创作的方式制作他的 录影带，这是属於他的创举。这个计画是一个荣耀他与粉丝之间联系的完美管道。" Behind the Mask是"Michael"专辑中广受乐评和歌迷喜爱的单曲。此专辑在2010年12 月发行之时荣登全球销售冠军，并出货300万张，成为2010年销售量最高的专辑之一。 此专辑的成功继续突显出了MJ身为跨越文化和语言的全球巨星的重要性。 --
