I thought this was pretty impressive…

This guy takes youtube videos, and mashes them together, creating rhythmic funk and soul songs, using 4 or 5 clips that he found on YouTube to create these beautiful and original sounding songs…
Sountrack Pro comes with a vast array of music loops… and I’ve worked with these loops many times before, arranging them, rearranging them, and just playing them… You can do some really great stuff with those loops.
Something that I find interesting though, is that I will watch TV, or watch Podcasts, and I’m amazed at how many times I hear loops used, that I’ve used in my own projects for both work, and for home…
And what interests me about that, is two things… first, I’m always interested in how out of all the loops that Soundtrack Pro has, people still manage to come back to using the same ones. And also, I’m assuming that these loops were purchased by Apple, and are most likely packaged with Soundtrack Pro, and with Garage Band… so when I hear those loops, I automatically assume that the person who edited that video, must have done it on a Final Cut Pro system…
I read a number of Video related blogs in my off time…
One in particular that I like, is done by Larry Jordan… it’s probably one of the few blogs that’s updated somewhat regularly…
But another one I wanted to point out, that when I put it in my RSS feed, wasn’t being updated at all… and I sort of forgot about it. Recently there have been several posts, and it turns out the writer just got a little busy… as all good bloggers do from time to time…
Anyway, it’s been a very interesting blog that I thought I would share…
Real World Video Compression

which is done by Andy Beach, and he has written a book by the same name…
I’m enjoying this blog, and learning a lot… and it’s worth checking out.
