revolution video
31 May 2009
The company I work at was a key sponsor of Saturday’s “Glenn Beck at the Capitol” fund raising gala in SLC. Thursday night, my boss called to tell me that they (the coordinators) granted us permission to play a quick little video at the event—something none of the other sponsors received, so it was a pretty big deal. Problem was: we had no such video to show.
So Friday morning at 7:30, my boss, Dave, Joe (from Children Kids), and myself met up and ran over ground rules and a few basic concepts. By about 8:30, we knew we needed our stand-by musician extraordinaire, Micah (of Typophile and Children Kids fame… to name but a few) in order to pull anything even remotely ok off. He was there within the hour and we got down to business. With some help from Ashley Mackay (also of Typophile fame) and a few rolls of sushi from Demae here in Provo, we completed the piece from conception to final render in one day—done by 2:30 am.
Now, I know it’s not the world’s most perfect piece, but I think there’s some good foundational work in there. And, honestly, I’m pretty impressed with us for getting it done—period. Especially since I haven’t used After Effects since said Typophile fame…
i think it’s pretty cool! your typography is always cool.
