Citizen Outsider Rough Cuts 2008 & 2009 Footage
Wanted to share some clips as the project shell for this chapter in the documentary is being edited between massive amounts of sleep. So far, since last year, 18 tapes have been digitized with 18 more to go. These are just a few clips from the last days of the runoff election 2009 for San Marcos City Council. There are many more hours of footage from these very days to be integrated into the clips that demonstrate time compression/expansion and all that goes into running a grass roots political campaign.
Below are some of my fav rough cuts from the 2008 race for San Marcos City Council.
