Courageous Persuaders 2009 - Aaron Kudla - Before the Party

My entry for the Courageous Persuaders contest. I made it as part of digital video class using final cut.

The story goes as this: A few friends are going to a party out by a out of the way road. They're early for this party so need to blow some time off. One of the friends has an idea of what to do so goes to his car. He comes back with a few "bottles" of beer. One of them submits and takes the bottle but the other sticks up for himself and refuses. The one who submits follows him and throws down his bottle. It closes with them driving off down the road in their car.

Yeah im sorry but i dont get the video at all

Two friends are supposed to be meeting more of the friends somewhere out on an "empty" country road. One offers beer to the others.

One of them refuses and has more power over the other (thus him throwing the bottle down) than the friend who brought the beer. The two leave leaving the beer-bringing friends alone on the side of the road.

Best explaination I can give.

Wow, the meaning of that video was so lost on me. I hate all these organizations trying to steer kids to the "Right" decisions.

[AaronMk91]

Meh, it's alright. If he was trying to make me feel bad he failed.

But what fun would that be?

[AaronMk91]

We already have about a page and a half of it. Could at least take it to the YouTube or RSBC chat system.
