Mr. President, Stop This War!

Design Goals

Develop a music video showing the events at Camp Casey in Crawford, Texas. Combine song with still photos and video. Show reactions of event critics. Keep cuts and transitions in time with the music.

Obstacles

Original source was fifty-five minutes of video and two dozen still images. Over fifteen minutes was accidental recording of a car's back seat. Also the videographer lost synchronization with the state of the start/stop button, so much of the footage is looking directly at the ground. The video was shot hand-held.

Results

The edited video has a perceived quality that is much, much higher than one would expect given just the raw footage. And we were able to accomplish this even though other video professionals gave up on the job!
