awesomeness Lando. what role did you have in teh movie you went to represent

[reza]

that's awesome. congrats. didn't APC direct their imagine video?

[Lando]

I do believe they chose all the material used since there probably wasn't a lot of material if any they actually had to film.

Kermit! I'm sorry to have to tell you, but I'm shaving the beard after two months of not grooming it whatsoever!

[Lando]

Or maybe I can hold out for a bit longer...

everything in that video is something that they recorded off of television. except for the wierd baby thing (i think) and the car part where the red car is driving down a road and the people are bobbing hteir heads.

I know that most of it was pre-filmed from other sources, but I wasn't sure how much original material was used.

i used the video for my political science class, for an essay. i watched it like 20-30 times maybe more, and i still couldn't help but be amazed each and everytime i watched it.

The point of view they take and their message is very true to life, especially with current events. They used the song in a very powerful way, but it's very appropriate. It's the way the world has been lately.

Yeah. the fashion in which Maynard sings it just adds to it. It's very different from the Lennon version. There isn't that level of optimism.
