Evening at the Museum
This first film was made for an "Evening at the Museum" fundraising event. We commissioned two music videos to be part of it so that one could be shown at the beginning and one at the end. The "Abraham Lincoln Tribute" was done by the Piano Guys and the Free at Last Medley was done by Jenny Oaks Baker & Condoleezza Rice. Enjoy!
