FREEWAY BLOGGER STRIKES AGAIN

re-size
Since the invasion and occupation of Iraq began, the FreewayBlogger has placed thosands of signs along freeways throughout California decrying the hypocrissy of the Bush Admnistration. His technique is is affordable and effective, but somewhat 'unhinged'.

    Too partisan. Too much fast speed. Add an interview. Add somebody being changed by his signage. Contextualize. Editorialize.

    I agree with rawbird. This needs some sort of interview from the blogger himself or maybe the reactions of the people who see his work. Otherwise it's just a how-to fast motion video. It's a good start though

    I never knew you could legally post signs on public property. GL

    What a great idea! Bravo

    I think this pod is succinct and complete and I disagree with others who think it needs more. I get it.

    Check out Sister Beatrice Explores if you get a chance. She also enjoys her freedom of speech.

    I think current has already aired a pod very similar to this( same subject) the fat motion is a bit much for me at times. but i gave it GL liked subject matter

    Check out my pod " A window to my world" about my life with an inborn genetic disorder

    I don't know. I watched it from start to finish, and I absolutely loved his in your face message, "...The war is a lie...and you know it." HA-ha! I say you could have added maybe some reactions and perhaps some spoken words from the blogger, but the message is pretty darn clear to me as it is. GL.

    This works well... loud & clear. It speaks for itself and doesn't need VO or interview to clarify anything. ~ zelig <a href="http://www.current.tv/community/people/zelig">link</a>

    But how effective is highway signage in sparking dialogue? Especially such partisan signage?

    It works but t needs works. Green Light thought!

    That was really cool... I live & drive in LA and always wondered who did those! Great work... also like the didgeridoo in the music at the end!

    Check out my flexible spot when you get a minute- I used a didgeridoo too <a href="http://www.current.tv/watch/29004628">link</a>

    If this could be coordinated into an organized action, people would be talking about impeachment as the right thing to do.

    The last 20 seconds are the most important.

    The technical criticism remains obvious...I believe Benny Hill covered this type of editing about 3 decades ago. Although, it has it's belly laugh quality..I don't see anything innovative and groundbreaking...even though you do critique quite a bit on others pieces. Sorry but this is not TV worthy in my humble opinion.

    ...and that doesn't equal that I protest my pods are worthy...it's a criticism which I hope you will take with grace.

    Funny concept but just not orignial in technique.

    I like how this video shows the whole process of preparation leading up to the actual "action".
