DOWNLOAD THE SONG AT http://ilovehappyman.com Every year the Hare Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, Utah puts on the biggest Holi (festival of colors) celebration in the Western Hemisphere. In 2011 the Spanish Fork Police department estimated that over 40,000 people attended in the first day alone of the two-day festival. Organizers carefully rationed their stash of approximately 120,000 bags of colored powder. The Holi Festival of Colors celebrates the triumph of good over evil and ushers in the spring season. A commenter took issue with my description of the story behind the holiday, and it turns out my description was slightly inaccurate, so I'll post her comment here with a few minor edits of my own: Holi is celebrated because Prahlad Maharaj who was a devotee of Lord Vishnu kept chanting Lord Krishna's name, in spite of his demonic father Hiranyakashipu disliking. So Hiranyakashipu, along with his sister Holika, plotted to kill his own son. Holika had been blessed that she wouldn't be burned in the fire, so she sat in the fire with Prahlad Maharaj. Prahlad Maharaj kept chanting Lord Krishna's name, and finally Holika was burned [and Prahlad Majaraj was not] because she misused her blessing against the innocent. At the Spanish Fork festival, rock and roll, R&B, and other modern interpretations of the mantra are played by musicians throughout the day and chanted in a call and response game between performers and attendees. The main event of each festival is the coordinated throwing of colored powder, when the sky above the crowd is filled with rainbow puffs of dye. This video was produced by Plaid Social Labs, a video and social media marketing company based in Provo, Utah. www.plaidsocial.com The performers featured in the video are Namrock and C.C. White's Soul Kirtan. Learn more about Namrock at www.namrock.com and find C.C. White at http://www.facebook.com/pages/CC-Whit... Technical notes: This video was shot on Canon t2is at either 24 fps for normal speed or 60 fps for slow-motion. Some clips were slowed down even more using timewarp in Adobe AfterEffects. The color was achieved through careful color correction of images that were shot fairly flat (meaning the blacks weren't that black, the white weren't that white, and the color wasn't overly saturated, which gives you a lot of information to work with in post-production) and with the help of a plugin called Mojo. The composer Aaron Hatch (aka Fresh Big Mouf) created magical beats from his home in Los Angeles.
