The video went on social media over the weekend.
Good morning. Here's what you need to know for Tuesday, April 12, 2016:
Some creative minds over at Prime Social Group posted a hype video on Facebook Sunday for this year’s Number Fest, and it seems to be meeting pretty positive feedback.
It has more than 24,000 views, 400 shares and 72 comments on Facebook as of press time Monday night. The video appears to have been released on YouTube in early March.
The video follows what appear to be college students on campuses and in dorms listening to music through earbuds before cutting away to shots of previous Number Fests.
Periodically, text flashes on the screen. Here’s a snippet:
“Two nights
Camping
Fetty Wap
The Chainsmokers
Big Gigantic
Post Malone*
Lil Dicky
And more”
*Note: Post Malone announced last Friday he would not be performing at the Fest.
