David: Two New Amazing Videos From Graham Raubvogel

We did a big post on Graham back in June as an introduction post. Recently he released these two videos on his Vimeo page for everyone to see. Check them out below:


The video above:

I DWELL IN POSSIBILITY
—Sketching the Future of a 21st Century Education—

Graham was asked by my school district to create a film that envisions the high school education of the future.

The world is changing. Exponential globalization and the growth of the internet have presented new challenges to our nation's struggling education system.

From a student perspective, this documentary explores the problems we face and the tremendous opportunities we are in the position to take advantage of.


The video above:

IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP is Gatsby-meets-the-Y-Generation.

It's a surreal high school dramedy about a young man, Conrad, and the hopes and expectations he has for a girl, that have blown up far beyond reality.

David: TKFV Introduction - ChristianFGY

Christian actually has made a short appearance on TKFV before in Maestro Know's video where he visited his school in Las Vegas. In the video Maestro shares some inspiring words to his film class. Below are a few videos that Christian has put together and sent me the other day. This guy is a very talented director and I remember getting in touch with this guy when he reached out to us about our videos. Since then we've built a pretty good relationship and continue to review each others work. Besides directing Christian is also a designer and photographer.

The first video is of Dennaya Famous, owner of the store Dfame in Las Vegas. In this video he highlights the aspirations of a local stylist/vintage clothing store owner while capturing her work and store at the same time. Little side note too, I NEED SOME OF THESE ITEMS IN MY CLOSET! Wow. Check it out below:

The second video is a preview of the Canyon Springs Basketball team documentary called, "Road to Revenge." It's a story of passion, motivation, inspiration, and dedication. I'm definitely excited to see the full version after seeing this teaser. Check it out below:


There is a lot more to come from this dude and we love everything he's put together so far. Whatever he's put his hands on lately has come out to be gold. ChristianFGY everybody. Keep an eye out.
