John Hudgens was hired by Joe Straczynski to create official Babylon 5 music videos for him to use at science fiction conventions, and later to promote the show to networks. They produced eight over the run of the series. Now, for the 20th anniversary and after numerous requests from fans, Straczynski has allowed these to be posted online.
The summer of 1998 was a good time for B5, it seemed at the time. The show was going to finish its five-year arc, the spinoff series Crusade had a greenlight - the show had survived. Hudgens had always liked the Queen song "Keep Yourself Alive" (he used it for a Star Wars music video he editied back in the mid-80s for a convention video dance party), and thought the lyrics were very appropriate. This premiered at DragonCon that summer, with a healthy majority of the cast in attendance.
