Johnnie Walker - Dear Brother
This is a spec advertisement that is currently breaking the internet in my social circles. I'm sharing here for two reasons.
- This piece can only be described as heartbreakingly beautiful. Stunningly shot, edited and voiced. As a piece of visual art, it is a masterpiece for these filmmakers.
- It's still bringing tears to my eyes and it's been 12 hours since my first viewing.
Pensacola's Proposed Commercial Film Ordinance
The ordinance, stated in Sec. 7-12-2 as applicable to "all parks, streets, sidewalks and other rights-of-way, parking lots, buildings, and the grounds adjacent thereto," and going on in Sec. 7-12-3 to say that "no person shall film, digitally record, or take still photographs on city property for commercial purposes without first applying for and obtaining a permit from the Film Commissioner" has put myself and other photo and video professionals very ill at ease.
