I just finished this and posted it on You Tube...It's a video based off of the offical music video for "The Monster is Loose" using only Bat album music videos. My favorite section is for Bat 2. Let me know what you think!

thank you very much! Yes...I also like Peter DeLuise. That's where I got my user name from the "role" he played along side Johnny Depp on the tv show "21 Jump Street". One of his undercover characters was one half of the McQuaid Brothers.

I love my avatar too...I've made a few graphics of Meat recently (I still need to post them on my LiveJournal though!)

Peter DeLuise was Officer Doug Penhall in the 1987 series 21 Jump Street along side Johnny Depp (Officer Tom Hanson) and he's not only adorable he's so funny too. In her averta it's a baby Peter and I think he's so adorable... He still is but go figure :heart:.

Hope that help's Zina:up:.

Confusion! The avatar is Meat as a kid, but I've also made some videos and graphics of Peter.

Sorry kind of went on a Peter DeLuise tangent for awhile!

Back on topic. Agreed.

The video is amazing!
I love how you meshed it because it truly works:)).

Pudding
05 Dec 2006, 03:59
And just think, you :heart: Meat every day and you didn't recognise him :roll:

BACK ON TOPIC: The video itself was OK, not fantastic but OK, a bit too similar to the other TMIL video that Meats record company brought out.

Pud :twisted:

Pudding, that was kind of the point...only more simple and only using Bat videos. I do agree that the official video is way better and something I couldn't measure up to making.

Rockette

Keep on working on it. You well could reach that calibre of video making.

mszee
05 Dec 2006, 04:33
I found the beginning kind of weak...but then you did some interesting stuff with matching videos of different songs to the lyrics of Monster Is Loose...good effort...

mcquaidbros
05 Dec 2006, 04:45
Thanks for your imput...On the matching lyrics comment, that's my favorite part of making videos. I hate watching fan vids that just throw together clips to a song and don't take the time to at least pay attention to the beats. This is why my favorite part is Bat 2 in this one.

Exactly...that's where it became quite interesting...

The fact that you cut and pasted images together and dubbed it with music proves you can be creative, but there's a difference between being creative and being original.

Choose a piece of music you really like and images or clips from video's you really like and give it another go.

A little encouragement would be nice.
I think the attempt was a good one, it's certainly something I can't do so I am in awe of this. The first bit was good constructive critisizam but then you ruined it with the second paragraph.

mcquaidbros
05 Dec 2006, 05:59
I don't mind you giving your opinion, Pudding, but I feel you are being rude. I have done many fan music videos and this one was my longest at 7 minutes. I thought this video achieved what I wanted it to.

What a crock of bullshit EDIT(Chris): Quote Removed

I was being honest and encouraging and then gave an opinion on what I'd like to see i.e. an original piece.

Anyone can cut and paste video's or images together and put music to it by using something like Windows Movie Maker, especially when it's based on somebody else's work. But where's the originality?

How much more encouragement do you want when you get somebody asking you to go away and make another video but using an original idea?

Pud :twisted:

I must be insane...but I actually thought that Pud's input was a positive one???

Alright, it's a proven fact that I am insane...

I would re-read his original post again and take it into consideration. He gave a decent idea to a creative mind...if I was told this, I would have run out and tried exactly what he suggested...

Pud :twisted:

ok as I look at your comment again, I'm confused...I thought that is what I did. I like the music and the videos I put together...so could you show me, in your opinion, an original fan vid?

Pudding
06 Dec 2006, 01:47
Your idea was based on a pre-existing one.
To quote me a bit too similar to the other TMIL video that Meats record company brought out. and your reply Pudding, that was kind of the point...

An original piece would be something like the music of BAAB to just the Bat music videos, or the music of Seize The Night to just the Steinman related music video's Meat sings, or the music of Alive to Meats movies. Something like that.

I must be insane...but I actually thought that Pud's input was a positive one???

That's all it ever was

I can see how mcquaidbros thought your comments were negative Pud but, to be honest I think too many people are hurt easily in this day and age. They do something and expect a barrage of compliments........... Even if what they did was s**t.

If people could just learn from negative criticism then they would learn so much more, hence, turning it into postive criticism. If you started saying "Oh I love your video........ It's awesome.... I wish I could f**k it" then mcquaidbros would be happy but nothing would be learned.

However, if I was to give my opinion on the video..... I would say it was good.

Artists in general are sensitive by nature, which leaves them open to being hurt. When we are shown something, and/or asked an opinion, that opinion should be neither negative nor positive criticism, but "constructive" criticism. I have been both negatively criticised and constructively criticised for my creative work. Infinitely more was learned from the constructive criticism, that included some considered admendments. The negative criticism (for which I had paid) left me nothing with which I could work.

Pud's constructive criticism was helpful in my opinion. Mcquaidbros, you've got this video (and probably others, I would venture) about 95% right. If you put some or all of Pud's suggestions into action, you have a real talent worth promoting.

Rockette, I've done more videos, located at my You Tube acct.

Also, I can understand Pudding's first post now that he explained himself (to me) a bit more clearly in later posts. I still like how I did my video, but thank you, Pudding, for your imput.

If you need help, ask me. There isn't any Meat stuff there, other than this vid...but someone has asked me to make them a video, so when I get that one finished it will be posted.

Don't think your telling me something I don't already know. My point was that Puddings posts were constructive............. I simply stated that they could easily be missinterpretated as negative criticism............ Saying that, criticism has to be negative or positive. It can't be anything else........ It's only constructive if someone learns from it.

I've just been messing around on Youtube and spotted a fan video that I thought was quite well done. Not sure if its already been posted on here or if the person is a member on here but I liked it.
