Elphaba Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 This guy, Fredo Viola, made this video out of what must have been a gazillion 15-second JPG files and, did something high tech with them that is totally out of my league. I thought it was awesome.The Sad Song VideoElphaba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonKairos Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 Not bad, but he's using After Effects instead of Motion or Shake! What's wrong with that guy?!!! After Effects is for wimps. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elphaba Posted July 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 I thought it was hauntingly beautiful...kinda made me think of that famous painting...The Scream.Yeah, Yediyd, haunting is a perfet word to describe it. Unfortunately, on YouTube you don't get the total effects from it. It's a bummer you couldn't get the widescreen version. I guess it's a matter of taste. I love the creative, artsy stuff. I know you do too.Elphaba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
