    Great Video! Not gonna lie, I shed a tear. Spent 3 years of my life in Athens and lived downtown for my senior year at UGA. Was the greatest time I ever had. Thanks for sharing!

    Well done. Very accurate representation of Athens artist, and music scenes. I was surprised that only a few bicycle riders were out and about.

      Hi Michael, the song in the video is by Zack Hemsey, "Finding Home". If you're referring to the music scene downtown, it's definitely a melting pot. Some more info can be found here on the history via Brittanica www.britannica.com/place/Athens-Georgia

    Great video! What editing program did you use? Do you recommend a particular intervalometer? I tried making a video earlier this semester, but couldn't get my camera to take more than a photo every 5 seconds using the computer software that came with my camera.

    2:46-2:48 "..and to your right, you'll see our local *Mr. Matt Groening* in what looks to be a *"Filk Circle".* Held of course at the lovely *Globe* ..
    SERIOUSLY, that man in red looks like Homer's daddy.

      Thank you so much for making this little film, you definitely captured the great essence of our home brother. Also, super cool putting Michael the amazingly talented artist in there. He's my best friend's godfather. Kinda cool.

    Good video, however, some of the content could be better. The Georgia Theatre is not the only or best must venue in Athens. Perhaps you could have dropped the Sysco truck and included an other local venue.

    Why has the name Athens????

    • @thrakiamaria
      @thrakiamaria 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      There are 20 cities and suburbans in the US with that name, I think is because of the inspiration of birth of democracy. Good choice!! PS there is also the name Sparta in the US.

    • @J_WheelerDoll30

  • @joewilliams8833
    @joewilliams8833 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Disagree. The Sysco truck is just something ordinary, something real. If you drive downtown on any given day, you're likely to get stuck behind some massive truck unloading stuff. The video is just supposed to be a candid observation of downtown.
