The music video entitled “One Nation a Time” – that pays tribute to the survivors of the massive earthquake in Haiti -- was entered into the SonScreen Film Festival at the recent General Conference Session in Atlanta. Director Daryl Anderson, Jr., senior communication major, reports that “One Nation a Time” has won Second Place in the “best illustration of God’s grace” category.
One of the writers Dany St. Luc was inspired by Anderson suggestion to write a song as a tribute to the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. “It really hit home for me since I am of Haitian descent,” St. Luc said. The instrumentals took less than 30 minutes to compose; St. Luc, Jason Jenkins and Donte Carr wrote the lyrics. With Anderson directing, a group of 51 OU students recorded the video at OU’s radio station Praise 90.1 FM WJOU during Spring Break 2010. The video includes footage from one of NAPS’ relief mission trips to Haiti.
“One Nation a Time” was highlighted on the local NBC affiliate (WAFF TV 48), has been posted on YouTube, and has been featured on Oakwood’s 2010 USM CD “Our Season, in His Time.”
