Other places The John Lennon Songwriting Contest
Milwaukee, WI
This spicy number was put together by a group of students who wanted to engulf the midwest in their fiery flows and searing rhythms. It ignited with a beat, then some Bollywood samples, some heavy lyricism, and a conflagration of passion.
The video was shot in the Historic Lincoln Hotel (thanks again!!!), which is rumored to be haunted, but in fact alive with spirit. Have a seat, join the fiesta, but you’re gonna need a lot of water.

The increasing accessibility of digital technology has led to an amazing expansion of opportunity in the art of digital storytelling. The John Lennon Educational Tour Bus has been at the forefront of this new media explosion, having produced daily video projects with students since January of 2001. The Lennon Bus puts state-of-the-art digital video equipment into the hands of workshop participants and teaches the entire digital workflow from story-boarding to DVD burning. Students leave the experience having shot, chopped, scored, and (most importantly) finished an entire digital video production. Using the latest cameras and professional hardware/software solutions including Apple's Final Cut Studio and Bogen Imaging's complete line of grip equipment, tripods, filters, and accessories, participants are exposed to the exciting world of digital videography and learn hot techniques of the trade. The accessibility of professional-quality technology is making it possible for millions of new voices to be heard and the John Lennon Bus is putting these tools into the hands of tomorrow's great digital producers.
