: IP Democracy2008 Election Phenomenon: Amateur Campaign Music Videos
By Cynthia Brumfield
Ethan Zuckerman has this fun and interesting piece about a new Internet phenomenon this presidential election season: the rise of the amateur campaign video. We're all familiar with two pro-Obama pieces, wil.i.am's "Yes We Can" video and the famed 1984 video, neither of which can technically be classified as "amateur" but both of which were produced outside the direction of the Obama campaign.
But political passions have prompted a number of voters to produce their own pro-Hillary or pro-Obama (and less so pro-McCain) videos. My favorite, which is also Zuckerman's favorite, is this weird Bollywood pro-Obama video. Great fun to watch.
p.s. While you're at it, watch this amazing homemade video. It's not a music video, but it is amateur although extremely good. Made by Sean's Garrett dad and brother.
