Chinese Dragon New Year Celebration – Nashville

Chinese Dragon New Year Celebration – Nashville is a colorful and entertaining display of  Chinese culture in Middle Tennessee. The Chinese Arts Alliance of Nashville and the Nashville Chinese Dragon Dance Team helped the local community to celebrate the Chinese New Year at Eakin Elementary near Vanderbilt University. Mayor Karl Dean was there,  as he has done in several other Chinese cultural events, to encourage the crowd on this cold January morning, The outdoor portion of the celebration is captured is this 7-minute video from Anthony-Denmark Communications. (By the way, the little girl heard describing the action was an unexpected but welcomed part of the audio soundtrack. I wished that I had a chance to ask her how she knew so much about what we were watching). Click here to watch the video.

The Russ Anthony 411 Experience

During video shoots I often end up with footage that I cannot logically place in my usual productions. Therefore, I recently started a channel for informal and unconventional videos on Vimeo.com. I call the channel, “The Russ Anthony 411 Experience”. Please checkout my first entry, “A Moon’s Journey Home”. This video and others there do not relate to social work technology – just pure entertainment. You can play the video below or  click here.
