Contest entry

For fun and practise, I did this very short animation for a small contest. I call it "How Not to Pass Through Airport Security: Righteous Indignation", in keeping with my more recent propensity for long titles. The audio is from the movie Penn & Teller Get Killed. (I recommend clicking that little "full screen" button for it.)

Oh, and the right-justification of the video with word-wrap is an experiment on my part, to see if it looks better than just having the video take up the entire horizontal space.

Better trailer (or, Revver wins over YouTube)

Okay, forget YouTube. I've replaced the Apprentice embedded trailer (on the Apprentice page) from YouTube with an embedded trailer from Revver. Bigger video size (480x360 on Revver vs 320x240 on YouTube) and much, much better compression quality, and a great fullscreen mode. Oh, and the ability to select the still image that shows before you click play, which YouTube doesn't offer. Compare for yourself:

   


Notice the fuzziness and general lack of detail in the YouTube version in comparison, as well as the bad compression squares on any scene change. I'll do the same with the other trailers as I have time.
