Ballard High students document the Bicycle Music Festival

November 8th, 2010 by

You might remember a post way back in September about the The Bicycle Music Festival–a traveling  musical extravaganza making  it’s way around Seattle parks completely transported by bike.  Once arrived, the trailer transformed into a pedal powered “biker bar” that ran the entire PA system for eight local bands. Very cool!  Did I mention that the whole thing was volunteer designed and run and funded in part by a grant from smART Ventures Seattle?

Equally cool is the promotional video of the event produced by 243 Productions.  Ballard  High School videographers, Louis Weissman and Chloe Warner-Moyer  were on the scene for the entire day, behind the camera and conducting interviews. The video project was funded through an SDOT- Safe Routes to School Mini-Grant in partnership with the Cascade Bicycle Club Education Foundation – creating  a better community through bicycling and bike awareness among the future cyclists.
