Update: Jenna just posted a fabulous behind-the-scenes blog about this video, including photos. Jenna’s blog

Jenna Fischer stars in a heart-stirring music video for Wisely’s first single, “Through Any Window,” from his album Wisely, to be released October 2nd.

Jenna has written many times about Willie Wisely in her MySpace blog, including:

January 2, 2007: I am shooting a music video for the Willie Wisely song “Through Any Window”. I couldn’t be more excited. This is one of my all-time favorite songs so to star in the music video is pretty cool for me. I’ve met with the writer and director on the shoot and their idea is very cool.

April 13, 2006: I LOVE this guy … Willie Wisely. His latest album Parador is great. I’ve been a fan of his for a long time. He has a folksy and unique sound that reminds me of Lyle Lovett — one of my other favorites.
