Hawaii Democratic Caucus

Wed, 20 Feb 2008 19:42:11 GMT

The Hawaii Democratic Caucus was held the evening of Tuesday, Feb. 19, 2008. Prior to this year's hotly contested race between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama (who was born in Hawaii), the record turnout for the primary caucus was 4,800 people in 1988. Last night, over 36,000 people turned out to participate. Long lines everywhere, chaos and confusion in several locations, and handmade ballots had to suffice for many when the printed ones ran out. In the end, Obama received 76 percent of the Hawaii Democratic vote, versus Clinton's 24 percent.

Miller Street Memorial

Wed, 23 Jan 2008 10:30:35 GMT

On Jan. 17, 2008, 23-month-old Cyrus Belt was killed when a neighbor threw him from a bridge onto the H-1 freeway. The city of Honolulu was united in grief over the horrific murder of the young boy, whose all-too-brief and troubled life has since become the focus of intense scrutiny and debate.While some people scramble to assign blame, hundreds of others have quietly convened every day at the spot where Cyrus Belt was killed. While some people are picking apart the people in his life, hundreds of strangers are simply moved by his tragic death, building a remarkable makeshift memorial of flowers, balloons, toys, letters, and other offerings.The sprawling shrine to the toddler at the Miller Street pedestrian bridge has grown so large, local transportation officials are struggling to balance Honolulu's need to mourn with the safety of nearby residents and passing motorists.These video clips were recorded on Tuesday, January 22, 2008.High-resolution versions of this video can be found here:http://www.vimeo.com/629646http://blip.tv/file/617965/

Hilo Takeoff

Tue, 22 Jan 2008 16:58:08 GMT

A short addition to my kids' collection of airplane takeoff videos. Departing Hilo International Airport (ITO) aboard go! Airlines flight 1039 on Wed., Jan. 2, 2008. It's an unusually clear day for the often gray and wet east side of the Big Island. Despite a dirty window and the glare of the sun, the view of the Hamakua Coast and Mauna Kea is impressive.

Anuenue Playground

Wed, 09 Jan 2008 19:45:06 GMT

The cool, green town of Waimea (a.k.a. Kamuela) is home to what could be Hawaii's best playground. Anuenue Playground, an incredible wooden wonderland, was built and is maintained by the entire community. It's a must-visit stop as we pass through on our way from Hilo to Kapa'au. Given the subject matter, there's a lot of shaky handheld camera work here (including an ill-advised trip down a slide), which doesn't necessarily mix with the HD widescreen format. You have been warned.

Kohala Jodo Mission

Wed, 09 Jan 2008 19:45:03 GMT

One of the key stops on our regular pilgrimages to the Big Island is a drive out to Kapa'au, ancestral home of my mother's side of the family, to visit the graves of my maternal grandparents at the Kohala Jodo Mission. Near the very northern tip of Hawaii, tucked away on a hill behind the original King Kamehameha statue, this small Buddhist temple is the epitome of peace and serenity.

Takeoff

Wed, 09 Jan 2008 19:45:03 GMT

Departing Honolulu International Airport (HNL) aboard go! Airlines flight 1034, bound for Hilo (ITO). This short clip was recorded by request from Zac, who loves watching my last go! Airlines video just for the takeoff sequence. Even though low clouds and a dirty window made things a little hazy, I think it looks pretty good in 720p HD.

Mililani Town Center

Fri, 28 Dec 2007 19:44:08 GMT

Wandering the Mililani Town Center after the sun goes down. My first adventure with my Sanyo Xacti HD700 and Final Cut Express 4. I'm not even sure after importing, editing, exporting and compressing that I've got anything even remotely like HD video, but I'm having fun figuring it out.Higher-resolution versions of this video can be found here:http://hawaii.blip.tv/file/565293/http://www.vimeo.com/456808
