New work: Helping make sense of a Parkinson’s diagnosis

By David Griner

Mar25

We at Luckie were honored to partner with the Parkinson Association of Alabama for the video below, which was created by our in-house Luckie Underground video wing.

This video will be shown to those recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, along with their loved ones. We believe it’s a frank yet uplifting piece, one that will hopefully make it somewhat easier for patients to make sense of this life-changing diagnosis.

As one of the Luckie staffers who conducted the interviews, I want to take this chance to thank each of the patients who volunteered their time for this project. I could have talked to each of them for hours more, and I think their stories will inspire hundreds of others with Parkinson’s for years to come.

Big thanks as well to Hugh Hunter, WorkPlay and Freeplay Music for their contributions to this nonprofit project.

   Well done – very honest and inspirational.

   By the way, the video quality is great. Obviously, you uploaded it to Youtube as an HD file – but what file format did you use? Edited by what program (iMovie, Final Cut, Movie Maker, Vegas)?

   I am using a Canon Vixia HF200 with iMovie and am having trouble getting the good quality to transfer over to Youtube.

   Thanks!
