Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

All About Art (A Video I Made)

Motto: "I'd just like to remind you all that I'm best. Thank you."
Weapon: Mighty Ear
There's quite a bit of introduction to the video I'm sharing, skip it if you want, but it explains everything:

In Theatre Studies this year, we're working on Dr Faustus, the legend of the man who sold his soul for 24 years of the Devil's service.

One of my immediate takes on the play, thankfully, played right into an issue I'm trying to deal with in school(s). The idea that art, and its associated subjects (drama, dance, music) are all subjects not to be taken seriously. There are people working in schools who call these the "easy" subjects, and I'm just about sick of it. But that's not really the point.

Dr Faustus himself is a university professor, who has reached the top of his game and is still unsatisfied, so instead turns to (the art of) magic, with help from Mephastophilis, a henchman of the devil.

This premise gave solid ground to put forward this issue. I snapped up the position of director of the play. One thing I stipulated was that any member of the cast with any other artistic talent should suggest it for inclusion in the play in some way. We have one girl doing design; the costumes and such; another doing a dance sequence and myself doing an introductory video, as these are our preferred mediums (besides Theatre itself).

So, now that you "get" what I'm on about, here's the video.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=MTudeSJII78

I'd really like some technical feedback (rather than a discussion on the issue, I'm sure lots of people would like to object but I'm only here to show you a video I made =]). This was my first video using Sony Vegas 7, I'm fairly proud. Just wanna know what others think.

Most of the clips were lifted from other videos on YouTube and heavily editted. If you know Sony Vegas, you'll probably pick up on my trigger-happy style with the 'Video FX' button :P

Thanks!

Thanks!

I'd love to do video professionally but I'm not taking any video related subjects currently and I'm not heading into University. On that note, I've taught myself everything I know about video editting. All I've had to learn was how Vegas sorta works, and most of that I learnt by playing with it. Fantastic piece of software.

I guess the best I can hope for is for some one to see my stuff and pick me up.

Yeah but most broadcasting organisations refrain from adding contact details in case they get FLOODED by amateur scripts and pitches and material...

Besides, I don't think I'd even WANT it to be that easy :P

Then get ankid, paint yourself green, put on purple shorts, take a demo DVD of your stuff, run to the BBC's main office destroying everything in your way and scream "Me Meverix want work, ..... in VIDEO editing!"

Now THAT would be entertaining! :P
