Music video

On September 11, Three Days Grace announced the music video for "Break" would debut on Yahoo! Music on September 14, 2009.[12] The music video, directed by P. R. Brown,[12] begins with the band members entering separate rooms that match their clothes' colors (Adam wearing white, Neil wearing black, Brad wearing gray, and Barry wearing pink), and shows four balls, matching the aforementioned colors, in a pendulum-like state. The beginning of the track "Someone Who Cares" serves as both the intro and the outro for the music video version of the song. The band begins to perform their parts in these separate rooms as giant fans appear and begin to operate. As the song progresses, floating paint balls are pulled through the fans and thus travel in a circle that leaves them stained with the color of the band mate to their left (Adam with pink, Neil with white, Brad with black, and Barry with gray). The song ends with them exiting down a hall, the four paint balls following them.

Several of the effects used in the video include: phantom cams, green screens, polymer, and water-based paint.[13] Speaking about the music video, Brad Walst explained the concept of the video.
