English project by Shireen Hinckley and three classmates. The topic is oppression in the 1950's, focused around the works of Ginsberg, Plath and as illustrated through the movies Rebel Without a Cause and Pleasantville.
They each wrote and spoke their pieces, Shireen edited them together with video and images. Sorry about the lack of credits for images/clips. It wasn't meant for general public consumption, but I wanted to show it off.

This is the SXSW Keynote video, previously posted on Viddler by allfacebook. (It cuts off
somewhat at the end, but was the most complete I could find).
I have annotated the video with nearly 2000 Twitter messages which were posted from the Keynote. In some cases you'll have to pause to read them. I did group together any posts that occurred within one second of each other. I saw apparent lags of up to fourteen minutes between what some tweets described and what happened in the keynote. After some limited experimenting I finally settled on a five minute lag for all tweets.

She hopes to get permission from the Passamaquoddy Tribe to do a longer version of the documentary this summer. She has several hours of interviews, and would like to conduct more. The NHD submission was limited to 10 minutes, and a great deal of information had to be left out.
