"The students all want to start at the top," said SJSU Set Shop assistant Aaron Kaufman. "My job is to make sure the ones who start at the bottom do their jobs as well."
The set for the music video is created by students, some of whom had to work over their spring breaks.
"They were told they could not attend any of the off site filming locations unless the inside set was complete," said Kaufman.
The students were able to transform the University Theater into a Mexican Villa a matter of a few weeks.

Students stain wooden tiles that will be glued to the walls of the set.
