OK Go does Pythagora Switch (PITAGORA SUICCHI) on steroids… and other enhancing performing substances. Released on March 1st this year… single from the album Of the Blue Colour of the Sky, the video was directed by James Frost.
But seriously, guys. This isn’t about the music, it’s all about the video. Possibly our contender for Breakthrough video of 2010~~~ I wonder if there will be any more awesome videos???
Here’s some interesting info:
The animation work was made in Adobe After Effects. Each frame was then printed and the print was subsequently scanned back into the computer. The scanned frames were then assembled back into the original animation, now with a new rugged look, created by the visit in the physical analogue world. No effects added after scanning.
I have a love/hate relationship with Sondre Lerche’s music. My friend keeps telling me it should make me happy, but he doesn’t make me grin like an idiot like Crowd Lu does… which works for some people who don’t like to look like idiots while listening to music. LOL
Not my kind of music, but this makes me want to play Tetris.
Happy Chinese New Year!
Yes, it’s your favorite movie to hate. LOL
We’ve got a very cool issue this month, but I’m not gonna ramble what’s in it.
Just head over here to download it and read it.
LOL.
Sorry for the lack of posts today. Didn’t know that working on two magazine designs was gonna make my head hurt. Okay, the blog totally slipped my mind today.
Anyway! Someone thought Gaga looked very much like George Washington… so now we’ve got crazy fashion dollar-bill art. I’m not a Gaga fan, though I like her performances. I would love to see her live right in front of me walking on a very normal day just to see what she’s wearing. xD
Look at them over at The Jailbreak.
First, WTF is Vevo, right?
Unless you’ve been looking for a music video by an artist sign by one of the few record companies that have signed deals with Vevo, chances are you haven’t even seen the Vevo logo.
Vevo started out with a celebrity packed opening, yet bumpy. Some of the musicians that day were Lady Gaga, Rhianna, Mariah, Taylor Swift, and even Justin Timberlake… but nobody cares if your platform is buggy. Users complained of slow “buffering” times, wondering why it was buffering instead of streaming. International users were shown a big splash saying they couldn’t use Vevo because it was only for US residents, however, some US users were also given the big splash for no apparent reason.
In short, very few people like Vevo for one reason or the other.
Some can’t use it, some others hate the waiting, others hate the buggy player, others hate the loading time, others (those who get to use it) hate the music collection… you know, since there are no indie labels.
Then, YouTube began using specific Vevo links, which seems to work for non-US users. However, loading times are still an issue. Add to that that it seems to be very random when it decides to not let non-US users watch videos. For example, I can watch some videos on my WinXP computer, but I can’t wtch them on the Vista I’ve got at home. Both are same location, and same internet connection. What gives?
