Dolphins Galaxia Music Video

A music video for an original song I composed http://tinyurl.com/ynqppd

I'd already produced the song. Then I discovered one or two videos with scenes that reminded me of what I was trying to express in the song, i.e. where dolphins could one day reach the stars and explore the galaxy with humans. So I decided to experiment to see if I could piece a music video together.

I've tried to weave a story in the video (it's purely fictional; I'm not trying to be scientific here): A star, from the seas of space, falls onto earth and encounters intelligent life--the dolphins--in the oceans. Then the star carries the dolphins to space, flowing along the ebbs of space and time. Eventually the star returns to earth again.
