Piedmont Park gets a mascot, and a new, rather melodic voice as local businesses and celebrities join forces for Piedmont Park Conservancy's first-ever big screen endeavor.

The film is a fun sing-along led by Tinky, an animated squirrel, who encourages viewers to sing park-centric lyrics written to the tune of "Blister in the Sun," a popular 1980s song donated by the Violent Femmes. A variety of everyday people including skaters, dog walkers, bike riders, kids, and kite-flyers sing along with the catchy tune. Organic farmers and supporting businesses participating in the new Green Market effort, impromptu drum circle players, and other colorful personalities are also part of the fun.

"The collaborative energy surrounding this film is tremendous. It was challenging and inspiring to take part in this enormous production with such a talented cast and crew. To see the final product from start to finish, all while supporting a wonderful cause, is truly remarkable," said director Jon Hill. Other local celebrities featured in the film include Atlanta Falcons mascot Freddie Falcon, several young actors from Actor's Express, musicians, and a variety of others. The filming took place in a 14-hour marathon on Saturday, May 8, 2004.

Other small businesses and professionals including Crawford Post Production, PC&E, Acoustech, Cinema Concepts, CineFilm, Dagnabit! Animations, the creator of Tinky, and George Lowe, the voice of Tinky, all made significant contributions.
