A hip-hop song with an environmental message? A PSA presented as a music video? A low-budget music video that combines live-action, CG and illustration?

I loved this entire concept so much. I run a conscious marketing company where I bring eco-responsibility to otherwise less eco-friendly markets (hip hop, fashion, photography, film, grafitti, etc) I would love to set up a meeting to discuss future collaborations, as I see this video premiering in a number of events and initiatives I have planned.
Do you know who I can contact that would be able to make it happen?

I also loved this concept for the same reason as Liat and wondered if you had an eamil for her as I might possible working in a complimentary field and would be interested in knowing her consultancy's name. With thanks.
