Racial Harmony Day 2013 @ NV

Hey everyone!

We like to start with a little confession; we faced tremendous emotional difficulty editing the video, by which we mean the soul-rending, nerve-racking, heart-wrenching, brain-thumping turmoil - you know, the sort of existential pain that plagues you when trying to work out the difference between a hotdog and a sausage.

Why, you ask? The video gushed with so much personality and artless charm, partly because YOU, (with all your poses and cheer) indulged us so much during the entire filming process that we had no lack of footage to use. We had to reluctantly engineer out the video with cruel surgical precision: lopping off this bit, chunking away sections, and welding away that portion.

Be sure to extend our appreciation for some of the students too, who willingly allowed yourselves to be filmed, and exhibited not the least bit of shyness!

It's a much smaller team this time and the credit goes to them:

Enjoy the video!
