    We The People Short Film #3 - Songwriter and the Student

    By Reelblack  |  Posted January 24, 2009  |  Washington, District of Columbia
     

    CNN IReport Film Festival winner Mike Dennis created a series of 13

    original short films from footage captured during his trip to the 2009

    Presidential Inauguration. Capturing the sights and sounds the day

    before and the day of the event, his goal was to provide a tapestry of

    thoughts and feelings from those who made the pilgramage to witness

    this truly historical event.

    In Short Film # 3, we meet songwriter Glen C. Campbell who was inspired in May to write a song in tribute to Obama.  Jonathan Smith is a college student from Georgia, who was one of 5000 future leaders invited to a weeklong symposium centered around the Inauguration.
