Tennessee State University: The Ballad Of Birmingham

The plot arc of "Ballad" is purposefully succinct: a quick montage of images from the bombing's aftermath follows with an atmospheric sound-wash, setting the mood for the song and the accompanying video. The goal is to create a new media 'tone-poem.'
