WHAT/WHERE
There’s undeniable color and soul in the City of Angels.

Though I doubt Los Angeles Tourism will pick up a video like this for their marketing purposes, I find this kind of video, thick with b-roll and scratchy effects paired with a bangin’ tune, to be what draws me toward the City of Angels. Though we all know it’s a massive city, it seems its urban culture gets less publicity than the Hollywood and hipster scenes. LA has a grit and smile-inducing pulse that encourages a celebration of its diverse make-up.

    Extremely awesome! Nice footage – I’m filled with the “I wanna be apart of that”-feeling!

    Wow, just wow.

    I grew up in Los Angeles and this video totally captures the typical feel of late summer — spending days at different piers or downtown for the music and the tamales, and hanging out in Hollywood or Venice to watch the sun sink and all the crazies come out. :-)

    Thanks for the nostalgia.
