The 2008 Senior Class just put out this moving gift drive video that is well produced and feels partially like a gap commercial.
...And nothing says senior gift drive than adding in a bit of nudity?!Watch it here!
I am not surprised this is a good video as it was done by Brian Canavan (C'10). Have you checked out the awesome films Brian did which I covered here?

As part of my 2008 goals for DuelingTampons.com, I want to bring you yet another "series" which I'm calling "Penn videos that will give you the chills".
As you'll see this week, I've chosen some very cool videos from undergrads and alumni which embody a great combination of artistic style, (in some cases) music, and most importantly, passion.
To kick things off, check out my #4 pick from an undergrad with some serious talent...When I posted here about Brian Canavan's (C'10) last visually stunning video, it has become even more apparent that this undergrad has some serious talent.
In his latest short entitled "Memories", Brian's stylized photography, and use of music and special effects make this a pretty moving (dare I say heartfelt) video.
Click here to check out "Memories"
Check back tomorrow for my #3 pick!
...And stay tuned in the coming weeks for more great videos on DT from Brian Canavan!

Submitting a story to Dueling Tampons: What you need to know...
Friday, December 28, 2007


DuelingTampons' popularity caught the attention of the DP. Both Alumni Weekend and Homecoming Weekend came alive as DT had cameras rolling and brought you exclusive video coverage.
You might think Wharton's Donald Trump (W'68) got all of this year's glory as I tracked the who's who of Penn. Turns out alum Elizabeth Banks (C'96) ranks at the top of the DT's most famous Penn clicks. That came as a little surprise to the Hollywood actress/Penn superstar when I sat down to dinner answering questions about DT to friends.
Famous and infamous words flew out of the mouths of undergrads like Jessica Gold Haralson (C'08) when Playboy picked her out of the Penn crowd having come across her controversial smart-sex magazine. Jessica was quoted in Playboy's September issue talking all about how in her own words "porn is awesome".
DuelingTampons has become a habitual networking source for all things Penn. Over the course of this year, DT posted 400+ stories unique to the Penn community, 600+ videos, 300+ photos, and 400+ message board posts. The number of undergrads and alumni checking out the site on a daily basis has grown into the thousands from what originally started as a hobby and now has become a love of mine. I'm committed to DT's momentum continuing as the ongoing source to keep the Penn community connected.
In the new year, expect to feel more networked to Penn than ever. More emerging talent in film and music are on the radar. More business success stories are emerging from Wharton. More videos and photos from the past and present keep hitting the DT mailbox. It's proof that it really does matter who you know - especially when you share the Penn experience.
If you haven't done so already, please click here to add the DuelingTampons widget to your facebook profile. This will help to increase awareness of our creative community to other Quakers.
Make your hopes and dreams walk the walk in 2008. And know that I am very grateful for you being a big part of DT's success.
Best,

Sorry, but the words "freaking cool" come to mind when I watched Brian Canavan's (C'10) documentary on Daniel Schwartz's (C'10) passion for Light Graffitti.
