good/bad compression

Here is an example of bad compression. Tony Yayo's video for "I know You Don't Love Me" is very creative and entertaining but as you can see the video is a lil' older & it looks terrible when you expand it...



The 2nd video has really good compression. This song is much newer and you can really tell there is better technology now. Here is M.I.A.'s video for "Bad Girls".


so the lesson here is to make sure the video is compressed correctly. You can shoot a video with the latest camera and sound but if you don't compress it correctly it won't look nearly as good as it should.

2012 Juanita Jr. Rebels Sophomores

Here is a video I made for my son's football team. The Juanita Jr. Rebels is a Kirkland Boys and Girls youth program. They are in the Greater Eastside Junior Football Association. My son is #10 Ten Montgomery, in this video he is a 11 year old 6th grader.

Occult World of Commerce

Perhaps the most interesting video I have ever seen is Jordan Maxwell and Jason Whitney's "Occult World of Commerce". Any person that watches this video I hope would be blown away by the information shared in this presentation. This video begins to explain OUR world of commerce and the laws that it & we follow in our everyday lives without having a clue of what is going on.

creative use of video on a web site

I found a very creative use of video at www.TomatoJaws.com. The site is Russian I believe so it is a bit different to begin with. Each page has a different background that is almost like a big moving .gif. The video background for a site is just never something I have thought of doing until now. This site has a very modern "weird" look that I really like.

in these 2 screenshots the girl in the background is moving just a bit for a very original look.
