A musical road trip across the USA to film the music of America from a Smartphone and share it using Telecom’s XT Network.
Before being a travel influencer became a job, we filmed a musical road trip across the USA, shared it from our Telecom phones and turned it into a documentary. As we travelled from NY to LA in our RV we filmed everything on the Motorolla Defy and shared our journey through frequent blog and Facebook updates - all using the XT Network.
SYNOPSIS
Blues, country, rock and roll, jazz, bluegrass, soul and gospel. Made in The United States of America yet they’ve influenced the world over. This melting pot of race, politics and economics is as culturally diverse as it’s landscape yet it still hums along to an anthem that cuts through the lines of race, creed and colour.
New Zealanders Justin Devereux and Maria Ward set out on a 21-day road trip across the USA from East to West to dig deep into this rich musical landscape. From the Gospel churches of Harlem to the country music halls of Nashville to the birthplace of rock and roll and Elvis, Memphis, they cover it all.
Thanks to the help of Telecom New Zealanders are connected to this journey. The entire road trip is filmed using the Motorola Defy phone and shared through frequent blog and Facebook updates.
So it is true. From here we can do anything…even film a documentary on a phone and share it with our fellow kiwis.
