I'm honing in on my video editing... what do you think? (feedback) - GoFuckYourself.com

RedShoe · 06-25-2003, 01:15 AM

I shot some stuff around the house this evening. And editied it together (ala TOOL (the band) cutting style). It's still pretty crude, and raw, but I kinda like it.

Forgive the subject matter, and dying Magnolia was all I could find.

After editing it raw (with no sound) I decided to put a song in there for flava. Oddly enough (and it's true, ask KEEV) the rough edit matched the song's beat by about 70%. I thought that was pretty cool, so I just tweaked it a little bit...

What do you guys think? I'm trying to improve my editing style, and technique.

LOL, I have like 6 songs on my PC. and that was the first one I tried. I used it because the edit matched most of the beats.

Trust me if I could compose... I would.

Why · 06-25-2003, 01:51 AM

it was pretty fucking cool.

i would have spent less time with each object, i wanted to see more diffearnt shapes. items, textures, etc

In theory ........... but what is the limit

The Detachable Penis

I woke up this morning with a bad hangover and my penis was missing again. This
happens all the time; it´s detachable. This comes in handy a lot of the time; I
can leave it home when I think it´s gonna get me in trouble, or I can rent it
out when I don´t need it. But now and then I go to a party, get drunk, and the
next morning, I can´t, for the life of me, remember what I did with it. First I
looked around my apartment, and I couldn´t find it, so I called up the place
where the party was, they hadn´t seen it either. I asked them to check the
medicine cabinet, because for some reason, I leave it there sometimes, but not
this time. So I told them if it pops up to let me know. I called a few people
who were at the party, but they were no help either.

I was starting to get desperate, I really don´t like being without my penis for
too long. It makes me feel like less of a man, and I really hate having to sit
down every time I take a leak.

After a few hours of searching the house, and calling everyone I could think
of, I was starting to get very depressed, so I went to the Kiev and ate
breakfast. Then as I walked down Second Avenue, toward St Mark´s Place, where
all those people sell used books and other junk on the street, I saw my penis
lying on a blanket next to a broken toaster oven - some guy was selling it! I
had to to buy it off him. He wanted 22 bucks, but I talked him down to 17. I
took it home, washed it off, and put it back on. I was happy again: complete.

People sometimes tell me I should get it permanently attached, but I don´t
know. Even though sometimes it´s a pain in the ass, I like having a detachable
penis.

This was inspired by you by the way, after we last spoke yesterday. I call it "The music video/editing/art discussion of 2003."

Thanks...........We are not done with the last video.

It was great talking to you also. But what i suggest is to get to know some of the local bands in your area and sit down for a serious project. All the work you do may not be lost and you will find more artists wanting to contact you do work on a project.

I met with some of the artists that will be working on the new sound track for Cirque Du Soleil . I am going to begin working on some videos based on some of the percussian and music they use.

I am also meeting with another musician from New York to begin our next music video.

FEEDBACK " Since I could not think of anything other than my The Detachable Penis. I did not think the video matched the music

What sux about art is only the artist truely appreciates the finished product... and a few really horny girls...

TheFLY · 06-25-2003, 06:00 AM

I like that you chose a rather mundane subject...

I'm a chill guy -- I prefer the "fluid master" over the rock-video type stuff...

Thanks Pete.
There isn't too much around here to shoot. A dying tree was about all I found. That or a brick wall. LOL

The inspiration (outside of Dugmor) was the band Tool. I worked on one of the earlier videos, Adam Jones used to do special fx, and so I really like his style. That over exposed, choppy, flickering, jumpy cutting style.

I like Dugmor's idea of shooting a video for a local band... but I live in LA, where am I going to find a band?

Nysus · 06-25-2003, 08:55 AM

Looks good, much enjoyed.

Did you use Premier?

Cheers,
Matt

nazgul · 06-25-2003, 09:00 AM

Good work, really enjoyed it.

The only hint I have is if you are going to add music instead of looking for a song that has similar beats to your editing, pick your song first and changing the editing to match the beats of the song.

I found that works easier

but hey.... detachable penis is a great song.......

LOL, you're right. I've edited all 40 of the collegefuckfest trailers, and every time I edit the song first (It's a 4 minute song that I chop down to 30 - 45 seconds. It's a little different every time. Then I cut the action to the beats.

And Nysus. I use VV.

DrGuile · 06-25-2003, 09:38 AM

Personally, I thought that sucked, but then you burned me by claiming it was "similar" to TOOLS

also, tools mostly does stop-motion
