CNN IReport Film Festival winner Mike Dennis created a series of 13

original short films from footage captured during his trip to the 2009

Presidential Inauguration. Capturing the sights and sounds the day

before and the day of the event, his goal was to provide a tapestry of

thoughts and feelings from those who made the pilgramage to witness

this truly historical event.

In Short Film # 3, we meet songwriter Glen C. Campbell who was inspired in May to write a song in tribute to Obama. Jonathan Smith is a college student from Georgia, who was one of 5000 future leaders invited to a weeklong symposium centered around the Inauguration.
