Silent Appreciation Videos

Phone Call from Amir on Vimeo. Would an artist still paint a painting even if Jake wasn't there to see it or appreciate its brilliance. Hang out with him and make up a secret handshake with him. Yes.

Live Definition (my digital year) from Blake Whitman on Vimeo. I guess I would consider this my first real deliberate vidblog. Usually I make pieces about an event or little vignettes of life in a chronological order. But this is random and scattered, and I think its more authentic to one's actual experience and memory of events. All video taken with my little canon handheld digital camera between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007. Its long, but so is a year.

Pole Beans from kumzooloo on Vimeo. Sometimes I think my Tennessee and Arkansas relatives are speaking through me. Or maybe it's the fact that I spent the first 6 months of my life in West Virginia. Or maybe it's just the influence of the magical Pole Beans. Cast: kumzooloo, Ian Lucero

Moonset from Alex Itin on Vimeo. The pines of my youth Have lost their lower limbs And stand now like arrows Pointing At a setting moon. Visiting my familial home, I noticed that the pines had become absurdly tall shafts, topped by Christmas tree like arrow heads... I made this film as my sleep was interrupted by the light of the moon and the dark of the dawn. They are like 4am documents of restless nostalgia and confusion... Cast: Alex Itin

Green LA: TreePeople from RyanIsHungry on Vimeo. On a recent trip to Los Angeles, we had the chance to visit one of the most green places in the city, TreePeople. TreePeople is a non-profit organization that focuses on educating city dwellers on the dire importance of tree planting in urban areas. Our favorite thing about TreePeople is their rainwater catpure programs. Rainwater is almost always overlooked as a source of water for municipal use. Cities and towns often have water shipped in from far away just to meet the population's needs, when in fact the amount of water that falls from the sky could offset water shipment by a huge percentage- creating a more sustainable system. If you're in the Los Angeles area, check out The TreePeople Campus which is part of the beautiful Coldwater Canyon Park- a 45 acre area in the hills above Los Angeles where you can hike, jog, picnic, birdwatch and smell some fresh, green air.
