I hate what's being labeled "viral" these days. Shit quality pseudo-hip hop white boys actin a fool in public.
I'll inform Jeremy (the featured sign spinner) that he's white. He must have no idea.
quite incredible though. but for a viral a bit long and for a music video not enough story.
sorry man, i'll let you plug your adverts in peace.
Cool clip, very much fits the MTV2 or Adult Swim vibe. Why isn't there any slush anywhere? How rude of LA to be so suntastic!
Somewhat interesting, but went on a bit long. Maybe if I lived somewhere that I didn't see guys like that every weekend it would have been more intriguing.
And why is musicvideosyay not happy with this being labeled as viral? I thought the term "viral" referred to way the thing was passed around (either forwarded emails of word of mouth) rather than the specific content.
The term "viral" is an aftereffect of a piece that is so popular it becomes passed around. Guiness' "Evolution" was an immensely popular commercial which became e-mailed and blogged about - thus making it viral. I don't think it should be about self promotion.
True. I could have called it a wannabe viral. But "viral" has become a general term for something of this nature. Thanks for checking it out. Here is the short doc I did that led up to me doing this.
viral or not. it's a great film. who cares?
the doc is absolutely uncredible! god bless steve meyer... if He didnt allready...
Ross, I'm sorry if I came off kinda harsh. The nature of my comment was directed at a stereotype of a category of music videos - which, in your cases, works fine as an advertisement targeting the youth on Adult Swim. I'm a fan of your past work and admit my comments were rudely aimed.
No problem. You post your own clips and you open yourself up to whatever people are feeling. The white boy thing was a bit much seeing as it's a black artist and featured performer. Stones Throw just celebrated their 10 year anniversary of releasing hip hop, so the psuedo thing is kind of off the mark too. Thanks for the apology, but keep putting people on blast or else it wouldn't be Antville. Right? I'll keep making my no budget stuff and posting it and taking the good with the bad comment wise. Thanks again to all who checked it out.
I just purchased chrome children 1 from amazon and downloaded chrome children 2 from adult swim because of this vid. I really gotta get out from under this rock someday.
Also, i had no idea what sign spinning was until today, where I saw two video's include it here on antville.
