Handmade Television

Hi there:

I just uploaded a new pod - Andre Custom Shoes. Please check it out. Love to know what you think.

Congrats for taking this one to the tube. No doubt your concept of a hand-made device fits perfectly with what Current TV is about. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the advice. I took it to heart and made a new podhat's gotten some great comments.

Now that's cool. Simple ideas work better.

Very well formed the idea, very good work,

I love "Handmade".
I've seen it on television!
Very creative!

Thank you for the comment on "bathbird".
I'm going to check out other neats stuff you've
uploaded.

Congrats on getting aired, its a quality piece cap'n.

Congratulations on FINALLY getting this on the air!

So I was talking to my mother, and the conversation reminded me of something my Grandfather, much beloved, used to say to me. He'd say David, "You must be gracious. If someone holds a door open for you, then say thank you." So I just want to do what my grandfather told me, from the roots,say thank you, to every one out there in the world community who makes this whole precept even exist. This entity, this being, this network Current Tv, is an idea that exists at just the right time, Now. Global Media that hollersback at the media and the media audience, and reinvents the idea of what a viewer can do. From the roots.This is wonderful, yes this is powerful, yes this is now, yes... and we are doing it, we are what makes it happen, you and I...and all the you's and I's. So, thank you to Current..., for holding open the door to and letting us all pour in.

Respect,

good stuff, very creative concept. link

DIY revolution, yee haw! Congrats, this looks like it was a lot of fun to make.

Feel free to check out my first vid launch We Create.

very creative, i always like seeing sometging with a concept behind it rather than just a cool looking thing. this is great!

congrats, i would have GL but it says being prepared for TV already!

Thank you for taking the time to look at my piece and for the helpful feedback. It is most definitely inspired by the L'asceaux paintings. Hope you enjoyed my other spot as well.
I am a sucker for stop motion and this is no exception. Although it may run a little longer than what Current would allow, it's still quite unique and endearing in sound design and movement. Bravo and GL.

thank you for your comments on my piece. i do think this is uber creative, and there is a lot of thought behind it...it's different. and i think it stands out, because of that. good stuff. gl.

crazy cool!!! i love how it looks stop motion-ish!
greenlight!
check out my VCAM sometime!

very well executed.
the nat sound is fantastic and i love that the promo flows in a conceal, conceal, reveal fashion.

GL for sure!

If you get a chance check out my pod: "a midwest oasis."

its the only upload in my profile.

I dig that hand-made contraption. Well done. Kept me interested and made me watch it several times.

Hope millions are watching - great adrenalin pumping FIX! Your work stirrrrrs the parts! Totally cool! Thanks!!!!!

Glad to be registered and part of your current-see!
Best of luck in the elections.

Love,
Hot Ho and Al Gore

Now that was rockin'!
Definitely a Green Light and I hope it hits the air. Beautifully cut to the music. Great job, C.O.M., might be your best yet!

Nice to see you taking feedback from your first promo the first time around and reincorporating some those ideas & suggestions into a MUCH more effective promo IMHO. I loved this! This is TV bound. GL! -zen

Nice cutting, you timed the shots well with the music, and I like that you gave certain shots more time. I would like to see the tight shot of the current conveyer slowed down, like at 48fps

Please check out my VCam for T-Mobile, and let me know what you think.

the work done is evident! GL.

Friends,

Postmodernism it is. Thanks for the thoughtful commentary. Back in the top ten, with my feet on the ground. As Jackie Gleason would say, "How sweet it is."

Talbott-I compress my files to 640x480 at 30 f.p.s. into an MP4. It took me alot of trial and error to get this to work, but I finally found a program call AVS video converter, It's available online for under $60 and it does a pretty good job. I've heard and understand that Sorenson Squeeze is the best compression on the market, but that can run you $150 + even on eBay. Thanks for the GL and good luck.

Tiago, man your work is awesome, I can see the amount of work that goes in to what you do. This piece is not stop frame. It moves by itself with a hand crank. I've been experimenting with hand crank, hand mades for a while...it's interesting to see people interacting with, and 'playing' the sculpture, I've had all kinds of people really connect with the work in this way. I'm looking into buying a welding machine so more hand cranked hand mades will be on the way.
The wall behind the sculpture is yellow so the tint of the image may looks strange. I've got a color correction option on premiere elements but I haven't found it to look that natural. I did play with the brightness control a little to get the wide shots to match up with the close ups...
Thanks for the greenlight.

So, thank you gentlemen, and good afternoon,

Postmodernism gone wild. We're as natural as a monkey bangin a football. Moral of the story: keep your feet on the ground. Great one.

Phedix

is that stop motion? anyways..nice job..i would just edit the colors, i feel it dying in color correction but very creative ^__^ GGLL :)
keep in touch

Good job Can O meat, this is one of my favs of yours for sure. I like it a lot better than the other one of its kind. I was more relevent to being a promo. Nice job. Defentatly should get on TV. How do you get your flick so crisp. Mine always come out pixilatted. Yours was nice and crisp good color.

Cheers T

Ancient Prayer wheel or early Mesmer device ?

Noel

Hahaha, that was pure genius! I have to show my roommates that. I love the way the machine works, it's so unique. I can't imagine where that idea came from but it was a good one. Greenlight from me without a doubt! Ok, im goin' to watch it a few more time.

Mike

That was freaking great, and it was a brilliant idea!!!

Yo that was bananas!!! On some post-modern-pre-apocalyptic-kraftwerk shit... Awesome. Thanks for your kind words on my work. GL

nice, funky, love the 'hand made' concept and the tempo. GL

I had seen an old version of this video, but this improved version is really superior.
I like your style and originality.

Love it, the rhythm, the hand. Keep up the great work

Thanks Dude. I have seen your film. It was the one where you glued grasshoppers to film stock. I greenlighted it.
