As of May 15, 2008, California has become only the second state in the US to legalize same-sex marriage. In 30 days from the ruling brought down from the California Supreme Court same-sex couples will be allowed to wed in all of California.

  • Good job showing putting images to this monumental event. I want to hear a little from you though, what was your experience like shooting this. How od you feel about the issue?

  • Overall I thought it was very good. I would offer these suggestions: cut it down by at least 1 minute and give more info about the subjects - who are they, why do they care - a little bit of time with them in other locations especially with their loved ones, would really give them more dimension and help the viewer connect, take some stake in what happens.
    On the technical : you should either deinterlace it or interlace it or use a different compressor or something to get rid of that horizontal shifting.

  • After all the bull sh*t that is going on in this country it at least shows there is still freedom and the constitution is still being upheld.

  • Beautiful video Travis, you made me cry. So proud of California. I hope VT is the 3rd state to legalize same-sex marriage!

  • This has been a monumental achievement for civil rights. This decision represents a great leap for the equality of intrinsic rights that must be protected for everyone regardless of Sexual Orientation. hurrah!

  • It kindof discusts me that they have to go through all of that just to have the right to be married. What maturity level is our society at when we deny two people happiness becouse of what a book says? Or becouse some people think it "isn't natural"?

    How are we going to be remembered by our future generations? As a people who fought for eachother's rights, or as a people who denied eachother's rights?
