Get Naked: A Love Letter to Britney
( USA, 2008, 8 min , Gina Izzo )
Skin and debauchery abound in this excitingly torrid music video. These local filmmakers aren’t content with the sexiness seething below the surface; they bring it to a full rolling boil in a visual ode to Britney Spears.
GET NAKED: A LOVE LETTER TO BRITNEY is a short film/musical adventure produced by Cristof Lombard & Gina Izzo, shot in Philadelphia in March of 2008.The video was made in tribute to Miss Britney Spears, in hopes of making her smile and showing her the fans still love her and want to see her do well. We believe "Blackout" is Britney's best album to date and love Track 6, "Get Naked (I Got a Plan)" so we decided to shoot our project based around the song.The short film features a group of aspiring dancers who are auditioning for Britney's upcoming Blackout World Tour. Britney (played by Amanda DeJesus) arrives at the audition with her casting team to be entertained by people who actually dance well (including JessicaBella, who was recently a back-up dancer for Alicia Keys) and some who are just plain silly.One of the dancers, Cristof, decides to simply seduce one of Britney's casting agents "The Lover", played by Marcus Antonio, and that is when we capture the sensual essence of the song and everyone eventually - GETS NAKED. In a very family friendly way, of course.The project is being submitted to the Philadelphia Gay & Lesbian Film Festival, which is one of the most renowned and celebrated of its kind.Directed by Izzo, with cinematography by Christopher Tijerino and featuring an all-star cast of local "philebrities", "Get Naked: A Love Letter to Britney" is guaranteed to get you a little hot, whether you are a Brit fan or not!
