Weird Al Yankovic's 1st video while he was an architecture student at Cal Poly - My Bologna - 1979 [View all]

This video was recorded at the TV production facility at Cuesta College in San Luis Obispo as part of my final directing project for a TV production class I took in '79. I knew Al from the Cal Poly radio station KCPR...never thought much about this afterwards until I got a call from MTV asking if I had any pics of Al for their "Driven" TV show. I said no...but I have this "video" on 3/4 inch tape!! Thought the producer was about to faint. Looking back...it's pretty cool to be the director/producer of Al's first video.
