20,000 and Zack de la Rocha March Against Arpaio

On January 16 the masses gathered in Phoenix to march for human rights and demand action from the Obama administration to stop the abuses by Sheriff Joe Arpaio . The momentum towards change is getting stronger. Mi video is heavy on poetic aesthetic and light on news info., so if you need to get educated on the matter I suggest... http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/arpaiohttp://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/bastard/ and info. on the movement is here... http://puenteaz.org/ and of course mas to come on my end soon, but until then Zack's palabras will do just fine for now. P@z.

Great work!

Jason,

Very well done! Dropping the soundtrack puts a weightiness behind de la Rocha's words that couldn't have happened otherwise; I found myself paying attention more to the details of his oration, etc. I also like the big titles on the front end -- like a wake-up call to the audience. Plus, what's with the vignetting? Is that an aesthetic decision? Are you using a 35mm adapter? It definitely gives it a filmic look, if that's what you're going for, I don't know. Very nice!
