Re: NIN ghosts viral marketing video festival on youtube.
Sun, March 16, 2008 - 12:11 PMYou love the video feedback, don't you!
My two cents:
The parts I liked best were the shots that looked the most abstract and experimental. Once you start holding the shots longer, or stop distorting them, and we can easily identify what we're seeing, it's not quite as fun. So I would go even further into abstraction, and not repeat the feedback effect so much.
Liked the insert of Debbie Harry's lips from 'Videodrome"!
Hope Trent likes your work. -

Sun, March 16, 2008 - 3:43 PMthe feedback was alluding to the patterns of energy being like ghosts in the video matrix, not unlike max headroom or ghost in the shell -

Sun, March 16, 2008 - 5:56 PMhow do you upload vid to YT without it being totally crap...?
i exported a quicktime *.mov
from the adobe premiere timeline
at 12 frames per second using the mpeg-4 codec
set for better quality compression as opposed to faster compression.
the 3 minute 3 second file was 107 MB -

Sun, March 16, 2008 - 6:59 PMI have to capture mine from weird software because the animation is randomly generated in flash which is just about ok but when it got through to YT it was a total mess especially for the collage ones I wanted to put through as it is my e-friend collaberator who is a NIN fan and wanted to participate...
I read a file that said YT converts the videos to 320 by 240 flv but even when I did that before posting the files came out like crap once they got through the other end...
I guess I need to do a lot of trial and error and learn about vid formats if I want to put stuff through youtube type sites...
the weird thing is that my work has been net based for 15 years and deliberately reduces file quality for ye olde bandwidth but even so YT messes it up badly... hahaha -

Sun, March 16, 2008 - 7:42 PMyou could take a video camera and sit in a dark room with a laptop and tripod and capture the video to the camera off the flat panel.
then encode it from the camera -

Mon, March 17, 2008 - 8:18 AMactually I like that in and out of the screen approach and I have some footage from a few years back somewhere... hahaha
but it doesn't actually help for what I wanted to do here which is get my friends animated collages onto YT...
but thanks for reminding me of the personal art installation projects I was supposed to be doing...
