30 Red Balloons.

This year's birthday video for B took a French twist. Some notes about the production: 
+It took about 10 hours total, including help from my friend Chelsea who has a talent for wrangling balloons and children. This includes planning, filming, and editing.+The song is "Cet air la" by France Gall. I love me some yé-yé.+This is the second film in my Twelve Films project for this year. The other one is here.+Between meticulously watching the weather and keeping the film a surprise for B, I was quite a mess the week before B's birthday. Thankfully the clouds parted and it stopped pouring when it said it would; I was able to use the balloons in their six-hour window; and B was actually surprised to see the movie.
