Music Video
The video for Do not Wake Me Up was directed by Collin Tilley on May 14, 2012 in a desert and published on 11 June, 2012. It shows Brown as he wakes up in his bed. Behind him walks a lady played by Araya Nicks through one of three doors. He tracked. In the next scene he follows her through a maze, he does not try to lose but she disappears through a wall, he reappears in his bed. Then Chris wakes up again and again the woman disappears behind him through a door, this time by the second. A further times he follows her. This time it appears on a landscape of clouds over a large city. Everywhere break through the roofs of several skyscrapers this landscape. Again, he tries not to lose it but tear him huge masses of water in the deep. Again he appears in his bed, wake up, followed by the pretty woman. this time through the third door. He finds himself in a cart in the middle of the desert and the woman rushes up to him. They caught him and the car flies with Brown at the helm through the air. But this time he wakes up on a high chair. His head is the end of several cables. The scene jumps around and he is back in the car, the woman rushes up to him but he can still dodge backwards. Go side by side and delivered a race but Chris overlooks a shield and plunges down a cliff. He wakes up in his bed, in which the woman kisses him awake. Both of which are adjacent to each other, each with two cables, which are attached to their heads. In the background you can often see the stylized lettering of Fortune.
Chris Brown himself said, many of his music videos play in a dream world, and now he wanted to make a video about this dream worlds. He wakes up in a dream within a dream, as in the Fim Inception.
