The music and the visuals just go so well with one another. Extra kudos for including the respect for social order being necessary.

I think this is a well representation for the 60th anniversary of the UDHR.

citizensparks 1 year ago

That was a fantastic video! And I think the point you get across is clear and pivotal.

Although, I always see a certain irony in video's like this, telling us we have rights when we aren't the sort of people that need to be told etc.

If this video renews attention to the original Declaration adopted by the U.N.--can it be?--sixty years ago, it will have served a useful purpose. How soon we forget. See un.org/Overview/rights.html

Oh... All Right! Human Rights in Burma, it´s OK...
But what about the mother fucking human right inside the US?
What about Guantanamo?
What about the 2.000.000 US citizens in US jails?
What about the "coup d´etat" of 9/11?
What about Irak and Afghanistan occupation?
What about the millions of inocent people killed around the world by the US imperialism?
Echinadrome 1 year ago

You spelled Iraq incorrectly. Also, there's a thing that says "amoung" instead of "among" in the video somewhere. But a super duper movie nonetheless giving impressive visual aid to an otherwise complex and illusive topic.
Taylor Wood 8 months ago

Actually, in some countries other than the US, Iraq is spelled as Irak.

One of the best short design films I've ever seen, Seth. Congratulations! Very powerful; very well done. Rob Ford at FWATheater.com would probably love to show it. Also, feedhere.com, Motionographer...

I wrote a paper about this video. Interesting how the "entertainment" and "making things pretty" factors made an otherwise boring read into something that was always meant to be really powerful.

Every day, these rights are violated in Venezuela, the country I was born in.

It's Burma, Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Sudan, North Korea, China, Zimbabwe, Uzbekistan, Libya, Syria, and so many others!

I wish those politicians knew English and watched this video. It's a great reminder.
