I couldn't find a way to upload this file to the website, so I uploaded it to youtube!

Final note:
All music chosen for this cinepoem was either of the time that “City of Ships” was written (1865) or by local musicians in either Philadelphia or New Jersey.

Tara! This is absolutely beautiful… I’m still in the process of finishing up my cinepoem, but wow… I have to say, you did an excellent job. Great expressing Whitman with today’s world.

This is excellent work! Thanks so much for contributing it to the project.
I know that others will join me in being curious to know how you put this video together.

By the way, “Streets of Philadelphia” is an amazing song and perfect choice to include.

Jennica, Matt, Jillian – Thanks for the compliments!
Matt – I planned for hours ahead of time to figure out what my “vision” would be and then headed out with my digital camera for a day of “filming” in the city. I had the help of two good friends.
Once I had over 30 minutes of video throughout the city of Philadelphia – I edited it and added music using iMovie on my friend’s MacBook.
