((I suggest watching this in HD at youtube))

I'm the fellow that made the Arcade Fire/Sergio Leone and Radiohead/Microcosmos videos quite a while ago. I've finally made a new one, and thought I'd share. Hope you enjoy it.

Download mp4 here. (thanks progosk)

Dear Mr Albert Lamorisse

You seem to be displaying symptoms of split personality, Indeed I'd go so far as to say you are a medical Phenomenon considering you died in 1970

I think you need to seek further and more specialist help

         

jt rulez this niche. (here's the mp4 link, for up top.)

         

haha arobodrug

         

not sure why the mp4 link doesn't catch the HD version; better than nuthin', i guess...

         

is this for real?

         

it's faux real

         

Really excellent choices by the director and awesome art direction. Who dp'd this?

         

haha, pwned.

JTyler, you are seriously talented. Not sure what your day job is but editing may just be your one true calling.

Thanks Kalstark. I'm a graphic designer by profession.. but editing/directing is pretty much my dream.

         

very good. reminds me of this: darwinawards.com

hope the boy had better luck

         

JT- I don't mean to sound patronising at all but I think you may be able to get a low budget commission of these mashups purely because of their quality. All you need is one commissioner to give you a pop.

         

Thanks Shatner. I've of course considered it, but legally I'm just worried that making a dime off of these would put me into even more shaky ground with copyright. At least right now, if I'm contacted by the film companies I can say that I've made no money from them.. and hopefully they'd see it as less of a threat.

But I really just need to get a lawyer's opinion, I'm sure. That said, I have been contacted by a few places willing to commission these. The question is always, "You mind me ripping off other people's footage?"

         

Sorry JT- what I meant was that you might be able to get a commission to direct a music video. you could always give it a shot...

         

Ah, I gotcha. Yes that'd certainly be ideal. And that, I am definitely working toward. :)
