Post-sunset backyard party, Oahu (3:05)Mraz sings at an evening backyard jam with longtime percussionist Toca Rivera.
Doane: “That was actually filmed on Oahu, too, (near Mokuauia Island and the windward coast town of Laie) on the night of our first day of shooting. It’s a house someone knew about, that we were given access to. We put up a couple of lights, a couple of torches, brought a bunch of food. People partied and hung out, and Jason played.”

The final shot of Mraz kicking back on the Hanalei Bay landmark is actually the final shot of the “I’m Yours” shoot.
Mraz: “We got to Hanalei Pier around 3 (p.m.). This was our last shot and where we said goodbye to everyone. We spent the afternoon surfing at Pine Trees (a Hanalei surf spot) … with a shark sighting.”
