Fact Sheet: ''Home'' Music Video

15 Feb 2011

Total Defence 2011 is anchored on the remake of the well-loved Singaporean classic, "Home". This local hit has been given a fresh and colourful interpretation by a group of 39 iconic Singaporean artistes from across generations and music genres, who are taking part in this project on a voluntary basis. They are accompanied by the Symphony Orchestra (SSO), whose performance was supported by the Ministry of Information, Communications and the Arts (MICA).Produced by local production house Full House Communications Pte. Ltd, the music video (MV) is directed by regionally-renowned Orion Chou. Kit Chan, Creative Director for Total Defence 2011 and the executive producer of the MV pulled together long-time collaborators and icons of the local music industry Goh Kheng Long and Dr Sydney Tan as music producer and vocal producer respectively.

The MV will be launched on 15 February 2011, as part of the programme for Total Defence Day 2011. The video will then be screened on free-to-air television as well as streamed on the campaign website www.thisishome.sg. The song will also be played on local radio stations.

An extended version of the video containing outtakes and additional footages will also be available for download from the campaign website from 15 February to 31 March 2011. Through a partnership with Community Chest, every download of the music video will be matched by a $1 donation to ComChest jointly contributed by various organisations.
