"Viva Baja California" Videos

fdt - 8-9-2009 at 03:12 PM


Finaly everything came together for us to start our new video series entitled "Viva Baja California". In this series we will be highlighting the cities, towns, history, people, events and interesting places in Baja California. I will conduct the program, Fernando Jr. 15 and Danielle 14 are the camera persons and Sofia 7 is responsible for clapper board since we are capturing the sound independently from the video. Our first video is about Tijuana (less travel expense), next is Rosarito, Tecate, Mexicali, then Ensenada, Bahia de los Angeles, El Rosario, San Felipe, San Quintin and on and on and on. We are aming for one every week. At this time Rosarito's cable channel 6 has agreed to air the shows as soon as we have 4 shows ready and we will be knocking on other local tv stations at other cities as we produce more shows in the different cities. We decided to make the shows in spanish but have added english subtitles for the spanish impaired. You can view small clips of each show under videos here http://vivabajacalifornia.com and next week we will have the second part up. You are also invited to the first public screening of the Tijuana adventure on thursday August 13 at the auditorium of the Tijuana Institute for Arts and Culture, located at Palacio de la Cultura, 2nd and Constitucion at 6PM, admission is free and there will be wine and snacks.
Special thanks go to Nomads Ken Bondy, tripledigitken, Baja Gringo, and McNulty for allowing us to use some of their Baja California pictures in the begining with the theme song "Cancion a Baja California" performed by the Rondalla del Valle of the UABC. We hope you can experience more of Baja California thru our shows and Viva Baja California.

Fernando, I am a great believer in dreams to come true, but ? they take perserverance and not giving up.

I will watch you become the person you have dreamed of, I will look back on this day and say "YEP" I know him and knew he could do it.
Good Luck Buddy in all your Endeavors.

Ferna,

I wish you much success with your new shows!

Having joined you last year for the orphanage visit and Tijuana tour I know first hand the dedication you and your family have in promoting Baja and helping others.

Your ability and excitement as a tour guide is fantastic.

Good Luck!
