robbalvey Posted December 13, 2005 Author Posted December 13, 2005 Ok, everyone! 10 of the 20 finalists have been posted!!!! http://www.themeparkreview.com/picknmix/picknmix1.htm The other 10 will be added tomorrow. Voting will start at the end of the week. I'm still working on being able to put ALL 40 of the entries on a CD. Enjoy! --Robb
momo1tx Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 I just started viewing them... they're looking very good so far.
Wes Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Really liked Arrowfanman, Loopy, and of course Jew.
Loopy Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Jew might take it simply because it is so bizzare! :shock:
Chrissie Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Loopy - Yours is by far my favourite! These r all so gd! I dnt know how the hell I got thru!
Gnome Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 So I was wondering if I could get some feedback about my video?
kenshinmac Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 I'm hoping to get some feedback because I definitely want to be up there next time... Its a challenge but hey I want to do it...
SharkTums Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 ^ & ^^ Public or Private? BTW, one of you has a very 'funny' critique!
kenshinmac Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 I PMed robb yesterday... I'm happy to have it here but I figured I would PM because then it doesn't fill up the topic... Heck if it is here then everyone can have some idea of how much my work sucked... Of course I have the excuse that I never messed around with this sort of thing ever before... BTW can we have the new contest start soon? Finals end tomorrow for me and I need something to do...
robbalvey Posted December 14, 2005 Author Posted December 14, 2005 We want to have the next contest start ASAP, but with us leaving for Japan next Wed it might have to wait until we get back. Although if we can get some footage together, perhaps it will give everyone something to do over XMAS break! Not making any promises, just understand that if we can't get it going, it's for good reason! --Robb
CoasterCrazy Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 ^^^I would like some private feed back on my video! I would also like to be in the top 20 next time!

How about a world premiere clip for the next one? It would be fun
Meteornotes Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 So far, for the ones I've viewed, Jew takes the prize! I was dying during that one, even though I had an idea what his video editing "inspiration" would be. Wes, yours was pretty cool too, though Premiere transitions don't look too good when used in such low res video. You did a good job of matching the music though, and had a couple of good laughs in it, so good job. You might have taken the contest if you had somehow worked the Wisconsin State Fair, Dio and/or Ron Jeremy into it, though... I'll be posting critiques of the other ones after I watch them a couple of times. dt
Wes Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 ^ I used Final Cut Pro, and all those transitions were actually effects I created by myself (no automation), but I agree with you. The "freeze on the drop and have little clips push out on you" was something I had in my head for a little while and wanted to try it. I think that one came out okay. The ending part I literally threw together in about two minute. I just sped up the POV 500%, added motion blur, color corrected it to red, and threw some clips on top. I'm really not pleased with that part. I think it's kind of cheap and if I had the time (or will) to redo the video, that part would be killed.
Gnome Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 ^ & ^^ Public or Private? BTW, one of you has a very 'funny' critique! either one works fine. Also, I really liked arrowman's video. I Must say it was the most original out of the bunch.
SharkTums Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 ^Good, yours was the funny comment!!!! You were actually probably #21. It was a really well done video, and it was between yours and one other for the final spot in our top 20. They were both equal in our eyes, the deciding factor was that you spelled the band name of your song wrong! It was better than flipping a coin! Seriously, please enter again next time, you were really really close!
robbalvey Posted December 14, 2005 Author Posted December 14, 2005 They were both equal in our eyes, the deciding factor was that you spelled the band name of your song wrong! LOL! That's right! There were basically two videos tied for the last one to make the cut and we looked closely at both of them. When we noticed you spelled Nickelback "Nickleback" that was the one little thing that lost it. The lesson to be learned here...always double check your spelling! Especially when it's for presentation purposes! --Robb "But yeah, overall your video was very good" Alvey
Twister II Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Some interesting song choices! Is anyone else wondering why random Japanese candy's are for the display picture, when the whole thing is in Europe?
CoasterFanatic Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 So far I am diggin on the entries from "Loopy" and "Arrowfanman". Excellent work guys! DailyBugle, your restraining order papers should be in the mail shortly

The "freeze on the drop and have little clips push out on you" was something I had in my head for a little while and wanted to try it. I think that one came out okay. That was a badass idea. In full resolution, it would probably be stunning. I'm digging the contest entries so far. I'll have more comments for people tomorrow when I'm more awake... dt
What Now Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 I can't view Joey's video. I can hear the music, but can't see the video. I'm also curious as to why my video didn't make it (aside from the lift hill footage).

I'm also curious as to why my video didn't make it (aside from the lift hill footage). Yeah there is some weird formatting on some of the videos that caused them to fail on multiple of my players. Thankfully I found that VLC seems to play almost everything. BTW Would it be possible to get some feedback either privately or publically? I know I blew a lot of stuff but I want to know what you think I should focus on... My PM to Robb contained what I thought I did wrong.
