Barack Obama in Dunedin: The Short Bus goes to a rally

[trover13]

Awesome work, my man. 3,900 views right now, and I just got ahold of it.

What was up with the fat guy with the American flag vest? Seeing him jump around like that, I could'nt help but think of Chris Farley screaming,"You're gonna live in a van, down by the river!!!" Even though I'm not an Obama supporter, I have to say nice job on the vid. Next time, less fat guy, more of the blonde gal.

We were in the crowd backstage / behind the podium that would be in view of the TV cameras, so he was there to get the crowd pumped up :) The video is "chronological" from beginning to end.

Interesting. So he's a a sort of crowd "fluffer". He certainly got me pumped. For diet and exercise that is.

Nice work Dana, I am impressed. I got fried and have a bad case of raccoon eyes. Next time, I'll def. remember the sunscreen.

I was there too and so glad to see your video showing the huge crowd and great song. Seems like Bay News 9 tried to discourage people showing overhead views of long lines on TV prior to the rally. I got there at 11am, found a parking space just a couple of blocks away and instead of getting into some line that was blocks away from the stadium, I went to the front gate and virtually went through security and got right in.

i was there and it was amazing! love this video!

[chellawellabella]

I don't know why I heard 10,000 people didn't get in the stadium. While his whole 30 minute speech was covered, Bay News 9 (Bright House) failed to show an overhead view of the huge crowd inside and out. I video taped his speech in about 6 parts but am trying to figure out how to upload it.

Can you change your video to a Avi format then a mpeg-4 format?

[StimulatedBoredom]

The original video was AVI, then after editing it became WMV...but YouTube compresses and converts it during upload to not take up too much space on their servers, which explains the grainey quality versus the original.

Looked like a lot of fun man, too bad Obama doesn't give speeches "across the pond", we would love to see him here. Nice homage at the end, had me LOL!
