A 30 second spot by adbusters that was rejected by broadcasters. It’s not mind blowing, but the fact is major networks refused to show it. What do you think about that?

Supposedly making fun of the Wild Things trailer

A seven minute documentary about Human Trafficking in the Philippines, if you’ve never heard about or seen the reality that faces many in our world, please take a few minutes to view this.

 

Clothes – a short PSA (1:00)

(I prefer the term Majority world to third world or developing world, but here’s a direct translation of the commercial tagline)

“Let your second hand cloths help the third world.”

“Laat je 2e handskleding de 3e wereld helpen.”

The Adventures of Johnny Northside Movie Trailer. This is a guy from my neighborhood who blogs a ton and someone made a documentary about him. The trailer actually looks really interesting.

 

Always informative GOOD on Clean Drinking Water (in honor of World Water Day)

This is a typical Hip Hop Sunday at my church

 

And lastly, if you ever wanted to know where Shepard Fairey got his inspiration for the Obey posters, here’s a ten minute snippet of the movie that sparked it.

YouTubesday: Support Team Awesome!

Leave a comment

Hands down, two of the cool and most creative people I know are my brother, Keane Fine, and my friend, Zach Swee. Besides being incredible and loyal friends, they are fun and adventurous. Take for example their 24 hour trip down to the Dominic Republic on $20 plane tickets. Or their European backpack excursion. Or you might be intrigued by their Superior Human Being competition. Needless to say they are awesome people.

Anyways, they have both created videos for a contest by STA Travel for a world traveling summer internship. So, as you can see, today’s YouTubesday will be highlighting their cool and creative videos. Take five minutes and learn about the two coolest people I know. And feel free to use the links to go straight to youtube and rate, comment and share the videos there.

I was going to skip Youtubesday this week, trying to slim down the number of weekly posts, but I didn’t want to pass this up. Just one video today, and it’s a interview format so you might not get the fullness of the story. Here’s a brief write up about it. It’s sad that these stories are so rare, but we should cherish the ones we are able to share in.
