Music video
Alexandra Stan started filming the music video for "Get Back (ASAP)" in late May, 2011. On May 25, 2011 the video was concluded with the scenes from the Mexican saloon. The director of the video was Iulian Moga (brother to Marius Moga) while the special effects were put together by 1QSapro.[2][3] The shootings were drawn somewhere nearby Bucharest, at Castel Film Romania Studios. The adjacent scenes were all cut off, apart of the scenes showing Stan in a dark wardrobe, changing her outfits and dancing in a corner. [2] The music video was uploaded onto Ego Italy's Youtube account on June 7, 2011. The video shows Stan changing from the police outfit she ended up with in the Mr. Saxobeat video into a red dress. Then she walks down a staircase into a saloon bar and sings in front of the bar's crowd. Afterwards, a man enters the bar and starts to play cards with Stan. Then, the police who arrested Stan and her friends looking for Stan in the bar, then they eventually find her. Before trying to arrest her again, the men defend her and the police end up bar-fighting with them. After the police win, they sit on the bar stool next to the bar man. Then, in sepia, it shows a flashback of Stan grabbing the money from the cards and running out the bar, fleeing away from the police. At the end, the man on the right punches the bar man. The policemen have a flashback, like a camera-taped video in which Stan gets away with all the money the clients plaid for.
