This video was done by our very own chat_noir, here at DU, with my express consent, from an original OP I posted here:

Anyone with expertise in making these videos can use these OPs as source material:

I'll be glad to furnish replacement images or work with you however, you like. I have a great selection of hard to find imagery in my photobucket.

1. LET ME ADD ONE COMMENT:

While chat_noir insisted on giving me credit for this work, I do not expect it on future corroborative efforts. I do not seek fame or compensation for ANY contributions that I make to media you might be considering. All that matters to me is restoring America to her previous greatness and getting these crooks out of power before they destroy the futures of my children.

2. First recommend. This is amazing.

:patriot:

Edit: I'm sending this to everyone I know. Already 48 recommendations on YouTube.

3. cool, maybe it will help end FOUR tours of duty for some pretty special people

in 'Nam no one was conscripted in this way. Those of us who did more than a single tour volunteered

[Straight Shooter]

4. I am so impressed with your work, I actually signed up on YouTube.

Soon as my account is activated, look for a comment by 12thDecember.

What did America do so wrong, that we are going through a war like Vietnam again? :cry:

7. that was chat_noirs work... she did the video! vote her up folks

she's just learned how to do it and is willing to help others learn to make this type media. Most of you already have windows moviemaker and it's all you need.

5. I still remember the first time I heard this song -- fall 1965 in

Gainesville FL. It's one of the most haunting songs I know.

[Jeffersons Ghost]

6. check THIS song out... BTW, I appear to have a GREAT connection on music...

as best I can tell a webmaster knows EXACTLY where and how the music is being used and not only keeps it coming for days, so far, but also posts songs that I'm searching for at their site, even though that particular was not originally listed. WE ARE NOT ALONE IN OUR EFFORTS! When you're doing the right things for the right reasons, things just seem to fall into place.

anyhow, LISTEN TO THIS: http://www.ima-g.net/mp3/baez1.mp3

you also might enjoy viewing the images at this DU OP post, which YOU CAN STILL VOTE UP. It's only got about 11 votes right now, IMHO, trolls are after me since I started this anti-war music vigil in General Forum.

8. Morning kick for a great video.

:dem:

[SeattleGirl]

9. Oh. My. God. That is an incredible video.

I thought the still-picture version you did was great, but this is amazing. Absolutely amazing. Definitely one I'm sharing with friends and family.

11. I've now learned how to use software that creates VIDEO...

Windows Movie Maker isn't really that tricky to learn folks. Try making your own: the more out there from good people, like at DU, the better. I am now working on my first project, using the music and not only most of the imagery from my Blowin' n the Wind thread but also LOTS of dramatic new graphics. It will be posted in this forum within a couple of days. With this software, we can also put messages on the images to create underlying themes. The new video will be targeting a specific demographic, which is not DU. Most of you are already voting a straight Democratic ticket.

10. Sounds of Silence seems to be timeless

and, unfortunately, we keep providing new images to illustrate
the words.  We apparently will never learn.  Just as in the
60s, we can't honestly discuss vital issues without being
unpatriotic.  Anyone who criticizes the "president"
and his war policies is today's version of a "dirty
hippie"--a terrorist appeaser and coward.

Thanks go to you and chat_noir for refitting the song with
today's horrors.

12. HELP! HELP! HELP! PLEASE HELP! please reply fast someone

It's done! I finished the other music video, using BLOWIN' IN THE WIND it's as tight as ANYTHING, I've ever created, even back when I worked professionally in media. I'm having MAJOR PROBLEMS UPLOADING it to my active YOUTUBE account. It keeps saying "failed invalid file format" at YOUTUBE.

13. kicking again! We listen every day, JG

I really would like to know the background of the pix for

"I turned my collar to the cold and damp"
