SMITHS STATION, Alabama -- Students at the high school here -- all 1,400 of them -- got their own Glee-like moment this week during the filming of a 12-minute lip dub video that's picking up steam on YouTube. (Story continued below)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=s4knk93sYEM
What's more, the massive project likely did Hollywood one better by being accomplished in a single take, even including the cameo appearances by local guest stars including the mayor and Miss Alabama. There was even a big helicopter-shot finish.
When students at Smiths Station High School want to reflect on their high school days in the future, all they will need is internet access to see the post featuring the entire student body dancing and cheering as students (and a few faculty members) lip sync to songs from various eras.
Hunter Ames, the communications teacher at the Lee County high school, says the video had been in the planning stages for more than two months but was filmed in one continuous shot on Wednesday. "We started filming around 10:45 a.m. and the kids were heading to their next class by 11 a.m.," said Ames.
The process for filming the video started with the simple step of teaching the students to walk backwards confidently. "I had to get them to trust me and walk backwards without worrying, so we started off with them just saying the pledge of allegiance while rehearsing the walk," said Ames.
This isn't the school's first try at creating a complicated lip dub video. Last year, Ames said they created a shorter film with about 300 students.
"Last year, we did a very small scale production," said Ames. "This year, we decided to include the entire student body."
There are 1,400 students at Smiths Station this year. The video spotlights students involved with the school's news organization as well as other extracurricular clubs and organizations.
In addition, the video features cameos from several special guests, including Lee County Sheriff Jay Jones, Russell County Sheriff Heath Taylor, Smiths Station Mayor Lafaye Dellinger and Miss Alabama 2012 Katherine Webb.
Ames hopes the video will give students the chance to look back on their time at Smiths Station High School and feel a sense of accomplishment and pride.
"The video wasn't about the class of 2012," said Ames. "It was about the entire school coming together as one and showing Smiths Station pride."
Since being posted yesterday, at midday the YouTube video had received nearly 11,500 views.

Even though its a lame Glee rip-off thing, it is still pretty impressive what these High School kids pulled off.

That's awesome and incredible.
Except for all the Obama shit.

I was impressed. Especially for High Schoolers. Shit, we barely pulled of a High School prank as seniors.

I'd expect that kind of quality from an affluent area like Mountain Brook or Beverly Hills or something like that. But Smith's Station? Wow.

"It was about the entire school coming together as one and showing Smiths Station pride."
Being only mins away from this school and community, I had to snicker at this part. Mostly a community of redneck bammers.

I was impressed by the video.
Not the dance team though. Yowza.

Ok, that's ten minutes of my life I'll never get back.
I've never seen a high school so full of ugly ass chicks. In that entire wasted exercise there was one, maybe one and a half girls who weren't blindingly ugly.
What a fucking dump.

Yep - I can confirm this having been there in person. Community full of inbreds.

Yes. And she looks like a stripper. She's got the stripper head flip down already.
There's one other who's maybe a 3 or 4, but some ugly dude keeps leaping in front of her so it's hard to tell.

Pppppfffft...
I just watched the video, and actually I was thinking "Shit, looks like I'm a pedobear cause there's way more hot chicks in this video than I was prepared for." I just hope at least some of them are teachers or something. Thankfully the smoking assed hot girl at 5:15 (who Kaos apparently isn't hungry enough to call a "Ritz") is Miss Alabama 2012, I later found out.

I thought it was mildly amusing.

I hope to GOD this post was in jest.
I've never seen a bigger assortment of pig-faced, flabby ass girls in my entire life.

Jeezus, come on! It's not exactly like you'd find at Auburn, or some over the mountain school, and yeah, I saw some of that inbreeding too...the ugly one's are exceedingly ugly, but...assuming they are of age...
Mousy faced blonde at the start: I'd hit it.
Couldn't tell for sure about one in the office at the 1:07 mark (in the black and white stripes): I'd probably hit it.
Blonde in Orange at 1:11: I'd hit it.
Sax player just after: Looks like I'd hit it.
At 1:49, the two white chics up front: I'd hit it.
at 2:17, the saucer faced red head: Yep, I'd hit it.
Fat chick at 2:58: No
Chick at 3:12 with Jeremiah the Bullfrog: Yep (what was up the the hair and noggin on that chic next to the wall she backed in to...saw another hair do just like it...uuuuugggggly)
Chick at 3:20: No
Perky blonde at 3:35: Hell yes!
The next two at 4:00: Meh, why not?
Dark haired chic at 4:34: Yep
Another fat chick at 4:53: :puke:
And another one at 5:07: double :puke:
Blonde at the top of the stairs at 5:15: HELLZ TO THE YES!
Next chic at 5:31: No
The pair at 6:11: neither one of them
The next three at 6:30: Nope (Beginning to think they shot their whole wad and used up all the decent looking ones early)
Petite chic on the stairs at 6:47: Yeah, why not. Except for the pit stains.
Trio at 7:12: Nope
At 7:50: THERE'S THAT UGLY ASS HAIR DO AGAIN, THIS TIME ON AN UGLY CHIC WITH BLEACH BLONDE HAIR! HELL NO! :puke: :puke: :puke:
The black chic on the stage at 8:18: Yep!
The blonde with nice tits at 8:48: Damn right!
The black chic at 9:21: no
Chic in the sparkly top at 9:43: yes, as well as the cheer leader behind her.
Saw plenty more in the crowd that I wouldn't turn down too. Saw a lot that would make a train take a dirt road.

Agree for the most part but the chick at 5:15 was hot dude.

My saying "Id hit it" in no way implies that they are hot, but yes, that chic was hawt!

I said there was one. That was the one. She was the ONLY one, though.
You people are sick.

I just keep telling myself she is a Sr and is 18.
Sani keeps telling himself the opposite.

Agree, except, I've settled for worse than 3:20 and probably the one on the left at 6:11 when drunk in college. Maybe would even settle for the trio at 7:12 if it was all three at the same time. 5:31 is a solid Yes, 7:50 is hot in a weird kinda way. Bet she'd be fun.
So yeah, I pretty much am in full agreeance, except for two. It's not like any of them was disfigured. Kaos must have forgot what chicks in your high school actually looked like. Do yourself a favor and dust off the old year book. I suspect your romanticized memory of that chick you had a crush on doesn't quite live up to what she actually looked like. Unless of course you went to a fictional high school from a teen drama.

You crazy man. My high school was brimming with girls who were hot and had quality bodies.
I still see some of them around. Even now more than 20 years later and after kids, divorces, etc. they STILL look better than all but one, maybe one and a half of the baboons in this flick.
I went to a juco graduation last night. There were about 500 in the processional and at least 25 or 30 of the girls blew away everything but maybe one, one and a half, of the sloppy sloths in this video.
I went back and watched it again just to make sure and holy shit it was bad. Other than the one with the stripper bounce on the stairs and the chick obscured by sasquatch it was a great big pile of narrow eyed pig faces with flapping flab in all the wrong places.
You people are really disgusting. Even in high school at the height of my 'fuck anything that moves' hormonal rage I wouldn't have dipped the cucumber in those dismal pots.
:15 - Pancake tits, balloon ass, beer gut, pinched pig face, narrow eyes and a forehead the size of a satellite dish. No thanks. Pass.
1:12 - Sax girl. Very plain. Would have to be drunk, even today.
1:50 - Girl in black is Ichabod Crane's horse mouthed sister. She dances like somebody is tasing her in slow motion. The blonde in white behind her? Potential. Mark that one down. Didn't see her the first time, the scarecrow and the tin man (black girl in white dress) had me distracted.
2:15 - If Jay Jacobs and Ron Howard had a love child, this would be it. Would possibly have more potential if she didn't clearly think her dough face and thick trunk was super hot. But I guess she gets plenty of attention at that school since there's so little competition. Another one with the eyes of a pig. She's gonna look like puffy hell in four or five years.
2:59 - Squeeeeeeal.
3:11 - Tight jeans are not muppet girl's friend. Very plain. Wouldn't notice her anywhere.
3:21 - How did a horse with the mumps get in there? Is that sanitary?
3:42 - Fair. Not remarkable. But not something you'd instantly spurn like the horse before her. So make that two possibles. Somewhat piggish eyes (again). Seems to be a theme here.
4:00 - Neither worth mentioning. One appears to be a Menonite.
4:26 - One in a black shirt on the dance team might have some potential but you don't get to see enough to tell.
4:40 - Looks almost exactly like the girl who was my last drunk resort in high school. If nothing else worked you could usually find JO at home and she would sneak down to her back porch for time on the patio furniture. So while this one isn't exactly heinous, I'll have to pass. Already been there. And I saw five better jogging past my window in the last 45 minutes.
4:48 - Were they filming Planet of the Apes in another part of the school?
4:53 - Squeeeeeeeal. Put some shoes on Arnold.
5:03 - Isn't she Precious...
5:15 - 5:26 - Pretty outstanding. Feral teeth but that can be overlooked. Still there were at least five or more of these in every class where I went to school.
5:31 - Face mashed in by a skillet.
5:46 - Appears to be a girl in lime green with some potential behind the enormous fucking dork with beads. Again the camera doesn't stay with it long enough to make a determination.
6:09 - Squeeeeeeeeal. In black and white.
6:30 - No words. Just vomit.
6:45 - Glowstick girl. This was the half of the original one and a half. She's sort of plain but not bad. She's spoiled somewhat by the Charles Manson doppelganger who follows. Something about him makes me want to take a metal baseball bat and beat him senseless. But still, keep the girl in. She moves like a stripper.
7:12 - Squeeeeeeal.
7:50 - If Lady Gaga had an abortion, it would look like this.
8:21 - I hate her on Shake it Up. I hate her here.
8:33 - One of the better looking girls in this video. Too bad it's a guy.
8:50 - Scarf? Her face is fat. I probably wouldn't have rejected this one then but knowing now what I didn't know then? She's gonna be a porker. But since we're not talking about future you can count this one if you want. Not enthused about it though.
9:20 - Ugh.
9:40 - There seems to be one cheerleader behind Bilbo Retardo who wouldn't frighten children.
9:43 - Another horse. This one in sequins.
End.
