Hanukkah Worldwide

A few weeks back I went to the video shoot for my friend Max's Hanukkah Worldwide video. Produced for Birthright Israel NEXT, it's their annual tribute to the holiday. Max, whose performance name is Max!m!l (which I love because of the upside-down "i"s/exclamation marks) is also in the Birthright Monologues show with me. The video shoot was done mostly outside the New York Public Library on a freaking windy and cold day. We were out there for a few hours on a Sunday and a whole bunch of tourists thought it was the coolest thing they'd ever seen. Also, at one point some other girl started shooting her own video on the other side of the Library entrance and eventually asked us to be in it with her. What're the chances? Two music videos being filmed in front of the New York Public Library on the same day? Only in this City. I feel like I can say that.

Without further delay, here's the video. I'm the random white dude jumping up at various points. So out of place. I should have worn some x-large basketball jersey or something. Also visit the actual YouTube webpage for more lyrics and more info on Hanukkah Worldwide. And visit Max's group's (Regime Change) webpage.
