I’ve seen this video about three times already and I just cant get over it. Its truly inspirational and it really made my day. If you dont understand the video
visit and read that article. This video was made in reflection to this article.

One of the most memorable days in someone’s life is their graduation.

“Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

Yesterday my older brother Rick graduated from the COED (college of education) at Texas A&M International University (TAMIU).  Rick is the second oldest and also the second in my family to graduate from college. The quote above describes what my oldest brother Eric did for my
family.  Eric was the first ever to graduate from college from all my cousins and therefore set an example or a “trail” as the quote says that everyone else has followed.

I have always looked up to both of my older brothers.  They have been great mentors and have always supported everything I do.  Back in 2002 when I graduated from high school, we opened up a website called www.laredosportsrush.com.  The webpage covered all local sports with cool video clips, pictures and stories.  All the stories were written by Rick as he knew more about sports than one can imagine.  At that time, local websites were non existent.  It was a great project that led the way for many other local web pages to follow.

Anyways, many more classmates and friends also graduated yesterday.

The very first music video we shot in 2009 will air on MTV Jams starting Nov. 27th.

Hopefully Laredoans can tune in and check out their own backyard on MTV.  The music video was shot entirely in Laredo, TX.  Some parts were also shot in Nuevo Laredo, Tamps.

Last week the History channel aired a show detailing the drug wars in Laredo.  It made the city look a lot worse than it really is.  This music video shines another light on Laredo by unveiling its colors, culture and authenticity.

I got the call from Scheme, from Chicago, telling me about how he had been contacted by MTV.  The video has been chosen to air on the show on the 27th and hopefully it will keep airing for a while.

I will have to do some very small changes to the video to format it for tv use.  For those of you who haven’t seen the video, the video is posted below.

Twitter users add Cinedelaredo to Twitter. We’ll be posting updates on everything from our shoots to new music and movies we recommend. This week’s movies we recommend are Brothers Bloom and for you art enthusiasts Antichrist (be warned it is very graphic but the cinematography is amazing). Music wise we recommend checking out the Australian duo Empire of the Sun. Their album artwork is pure 80s Sci-Fi awesomeness. So for more updates like these, be sure to add us to Twitter.
