Default More filial videos

Marion posted a link to a very entertaining video by her son; I hope that she
doesn't mind if I post a link to two of my son Thomas's very short videos--
one is a short documentary about the CAMME center for homeless children
in Goma, Congo:

(If you want to support the CAMME center, their link is here:
http://www.cammedrcongo.org/CAMME/Home.html)

and the other is a recipe video set to some hip-hop music:

(my other son, Julian, is the main cook).

Hi Martin,
Wow! Very well done! The CAMME center video is done so professionally – the photography is awesome. Was your son actually there? That last shot of the ball is so poignant – speaks volumes more than words… And the cooking video is wonderful. Made my mouth water. The music is great. I never thought I'd hear any vegetarian Rap! Maybe your son can get a job on the Cooking Channel!

Thanks Marion!
Yes, Thomas was in Goma and filmed it all in person. He is free-lancing around New York,
mostly doing electrical on various jobs, and trying to become a documentary filmmaker.

It's beautiful work, Martin - what talent! What range. Intimacy and action shots. All very accomplished.

Adam,
thank you! I do think he is very talented, but I guess that I am biased.

I hope that you enjoyed the videos.

Martin

Seree,
thanks, I hope that you enjoyed the videos. I don't quite understand your comment--
"@ashkenaz" has nothing to do with the video; Thomas just used the music for the
video since it is about food, but he has no connection to the group.
Thanks and best wishes,
Martin
