Local Students Sail Away
The international University LipDub project began at Hochschule Furtwangen, a technical university in Germany. The students there challenged other universities to show off their campuses while meeting the challenge of creating a music video in one single shot. Soon, universities from all over the world responded to the challenge, including our neighbor, Calvin College.
The idea behind LipDub is to choose a song which several people can lip sync to. The song that the committee chose was “Come Sail Away” by Styx. We liked that it incorporated a water and sailing theme for the GVSU Lakers. We also liked that it was a six-minute song which allowed us to travel to highlights of the Allendale campus.
