This is the video I did last night to spoof the recent news that AOL released private data from 650,000 of its customers. I was getting the shakes last night because I hadn’t made a video in about a week (new job). So I cranked this out after reading a TechCrunch article about this AOL…
Shame on us. We’ve been so focused on the video and music, we forgot about the sound effects. Did you know: Animals are never ever silent- dogs whine/bark/yip, cats meow or purr, cows moo, even in cases where most animals wouldn’t be making a sound. All bicycles have bells (that sounds). Car tires “always” screech…
Says Michael Arrington of TechCrunch, “The utter stupidity of this is staggering.” Gosh, AOL only made public some 20 million web queries from 250,000 people. That’s not NEARLY as invasive as this probe cam (click to see recent footage) they keep sending to my house.
The Wilhelm Scream is a stock sound effect first used in the 1951 “Distant Drums.” Wikipedia calls it the “most well known cinematic sound cliches.” It was revived for the Star Wars and Indiana Jones series. Here’s a video collage of some classic movies using the Whilhelm scream. To download the scream click here. Let…
Oliver Laric created a video from 787 clip art images. Very cool. All it needs is some jamming music and 787 release forms and it’s ready for prime time. Source: DVBlog via LoadedPun

OKGo’s “Here it Goes Again” exploded to a million views in 5 days. Check out the video by clicking the frame, or visit their website at OKGO.com. Really fun to watch, and a catch tune.
I had to watch this about 5 times. It’s 6 seconds long, but it has quite a punch to it. Sucker punch. Can’t really tell the context, but it’s apparently a teacher talking about someone having THT in their system.
For no apparent reason (and for the first time) I decided to Google “online video obsession.” What would I find? Turns out this blog was listed #3. Then I decided I needed a post titled “Online Video Obsession,” so I might rise to the #1 listing. It’s only fair. I have been diagnosed as having…
Ouch. Here’s the WalmartMovie.com, and here’s a clip. It’s kinda long, and it’s really just a guy describing moments he regrets in his career at Walmart. But it’s hard to stop listening to. (Via VideoRambler). If you tap into an issue of mass frustration these days, all you have to do is create a tight…
