"Democracy is only the beginning..."

"To our parents, for so many reasons..."

I was designed in Saïgon Vietnam, assembled in Paris France, quality controlled in Mountain View USA and my maintenance has now been scheduled in Novosibirsk in Russia. With friends like Arya Ghavamian, Aurélien Chiavaroli and Philippe Abdou (and many many many other friends around the world --special thanks to Mémona Madi for her soundtrack), we founded Canaan Project, a production company that focuses its -abysmally- small resources to the ever alarming issues of our generation.

Our early work (short films and photography) has been exposed in various places such as Canberra, Osaka, Teheran, Paris and throughout the Silicon Valley with an unstoppable thirst for new challenges.

We are now dedicating our resources to the design of a motion controlled rotoscopy / compositing system that works at 6 times the resolution of regular HD video. The first demo test reel is coming up and its very encouraging.

We participated to the Democracy Challenge because we wanted to be part of this unstoppable and ever increasing online global dialogue on social equality. The astounding number and quality brought by the other videos from the contest bring warmth to our hearts and give us even more hope on the issues that need to be solved locally and globally.

We are honored by the enthusiasm that you have generated over our video and this gives us even more energy to pursue our goals.

We will soon meet again,

Canaanproject

Big thanks to all the friends from all over the world that helped us out, especially those who are in Tehran Iran, Baku Azerbaijan,London UK, Paris France, Novosibirsk Russia, Myanmar Burma and USA.

Special thanks for my family and their limitless patience in California.

Franklin Pham, Arya Ghavamian, Aurélien Chiavaroli, Philippe Abdou, Ryan S. Wu, Mémona Madi, Zaur Hasanov and so so so many more...

Hey Bro its Lex, The guy u met the other nite walkin his dog! You left your Mic at my house bro, Hit my inbox so we can link up!

[ZillahGlory]

wonderful wonderful introduction. mood into color, fantastic. wide screen, children's book storytelling into ... reality.  multiple language... overlapping the sounds of guns... hurts. successful. poetic language. topic that raises interest: language. I begin to understand you even in your language, and that involves me in the meaning of this project. gorgeous filming of beautiful faces. the framing of the video suggests lessons, Hallmark, value, meaning. BEAUTIFUL!

it is a latin language and has sounds specific to eastern europe.
