Keiko's Dream

KEIKO'S DREAM... KEIKO'S LEGACY
An Educational Video

Coming in 2008

Joshua Records in association with The Free Willy Keiko Foundation to release an Educational Video about Keiko’s Life and Legacy, utilizing music written by Theresa Demarest from The Keiko’s Dream Tour.

The goal for this film is to encourage you to take a second look the whole effort to release Keiko back to the wild. We hope to evoke within you a desire:

to ponder Keiko's own strong will to survive
to explore his enormous embrace of his own freedom
to observe his behavior and compare it to orcas in the wild
to see things about Keiko in a way that maybe you didn't think about before
to look at what The Free Willy Keiko Foundation and all those directly involved were doing
to look at the ways in which the effort to release a captive whale into the wild succeeded perhaps from Keiko’s point of view
to encourage the study of so many questions left unexplored...

The "KEIKO’S DREAM... KEIKO'S LEGACY" DVD utilizes footage provided by the Free Willy Keiko Foundation, Ocean Futures Society, Orcalab, and independent videographer Eric Engelken. The DVD is being produced by Joshua Records.

The title song "Keiko’s Dream" is an original instrumental piece dedicated to Keiko that evokes the whale’s song through the extra-ordinary lead guitar theme written by Theresa Demarest and eloquently performed by Good Company band member Tim Ellis. A second song titled: “Keiko” written for the DVD is performed by Theresa Demarest, Renato Caranto, and Thera Memory.

This is Keiko's Dream... This is Keiko's Legacy.
