    Quite a disapponting week this week, not many videos to choose from this time, normally I have about 10-15 I pick that have potenial, but only 6 this week. Lets hope next week is better. Here is the Top 5.

    A very good video. I only have 1 main complaint, and that was the overused flash and TV effect. It would of been nice to see some variety.

    Song: A Town Called Hypocrisy by Lostprophets

    A good video, but lacked effect but had good flow. The cut in the song was obvious, maybe because I know the song well so I noticed the edits easily, and I didn't like how you ended the song, but beyond that it was good.

    Now for the special mentions.

    It's been a while since the last KH-Vid MEP, which ended up being a big success, so now seems like a good time to do a new one.

    For those who regularly visit the forum, you would of found out that a well liked and popular member Soku has passed away recently. So in respect and remembrance of him this MEP will be dedicated to him.

    There will be no limit on song choice, we don't want the tribute MEP to be totally depressing. So pick any song you wish, from happy or emotional. Lets just make it fun and enjoyable for those taking part and those.

    To those who wish to take part say so here or PM me, whatever you wish. Once you are done with the video just send me a download link via PM. Now for the technical aspect.

    Quality: Ideally good quality in both picture and sound.
    Length: 30 Seconds - 1 Minute 15 Seconds. No shorter or longer.
    Limit: There will be no limit on people taking part, the more the merrier. Nor a limit on skill, people of all skill levels can take part.
    Footage: Last years attempt at diversity failed with only one non-KH video. So this time like the Top 5 make it KH, FF or Disney related only.
    Song: Anything, just nothing to crude.

    Deadline: June 25th. I believe that is a reasonable time to get a video done by.

    Due to huge response, if you want to take part tell us by June 6th, or else you won't be able to.

    I hope may people take part and I look forward to the entries.

    Zebrahead

    What was the first band that combined Rock and Rap? I'll give you a minute to think about it.

    ....Nope your wrong. It was this band. Forming in 1996, and released there first album in 1998. They were at first a ska/punk band but changed to pop/punk. (with some rap)

    I first heard about the band from a friend, around the time they released their latest album 'Broadcast to the World' in 2006. I thought it was a good album, nothing amazing but it was catchy and easy to listen to. Rap doesn't sink well with me, but it works so well here. I didn't know that they had another singer before it. There was a long period where I lacked interest in the band. But with me going to the Download Festival in 2 weeks time, they will be the first band I will be seeing, this resparked my interest. So I got a hold of all their albums. The first 2 'Waste of Mind' and 'Playmate of the Year' was pretty good. But it wasn't until 'MFZB' (said to stand for 'Mother ****Ing Zebrahead, B****') that I really started to get into the band.

    'MFZB' is an amazing album, probably one of the best pop/punk albums out there. It's a highly catchy, high energy and well put together. Most of the songs are quite fast paced with the exception of a few slow songs. There are some real head-banging songs like 'Type A' or 'Alone' or just simply catchy 'Rescue Me.' It's great for when your driving or in the car. It's feel good and gets you pumping, I currently have it on repeat in my car. Fan of pop/punk? get this album. Yes there is rapping, but don't worry they are much more rocky and really fits well.

    I'm now really looking forward to seeing them at Download and there new album 'Phoenix' due in August. (July in Japan the lucky *******)

    Video editting at the site is growing fast, just over a year ago people were just getting used to Windows Movie Maker, but now people are producing amazing work. But it can be daunting for those new to editting. Well this is where the blog helps.

    For those who don't know what it is net neutrality is where there is no restriction of providers or restrict content. That what is it in it's basic form if you want a better explanation go to the wiki page.

    You can fully understand companies charging customers more for a faster connection speed, it makes sense. But Virgin are trying a contraversal method where they are going to limit the providers themselves. Lets say for a current example in an article where the CEO of Virgin Media said -

    What this means if BBC don't pay money to Virgin they will make the service slower for all Virgin Media customers. What BBC iPlayer is, is a on demand service where you can watch the past 7 days programmes online. So streaming the content takes up alot of bandwidth. And this is probably the reason for it, so save bandwidth. But that won't be the only site. Sites like youtube, veoh, probably even Gametrailers and gamespot, sites which have high bandwidths will also be affected. Do you want a slower loading site and even slower streaming times?

    So far it will only effect those Virgin Media customers in the UK, but it may also spread to other internet providers and maybe overseas to the likes of the US. But don't worry not all the companies have the same opinion

    For more information go to this site - http://stopvirgin.movielol.org/

    Yes bandwidth is an issue in recent years, with more demanding sites like BBC iPlayer, youtube and torrents. But is Virgin's method the right way to go about it?

    I personally perfer BT's methods of educating.

    Anyone had the chance to play this yet.

    I have, so far I've only played for an hour, and had a chance to play Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag.

    I really enjoyed it. A nice amount of customation for the character's look. Just a shame you don't get much to change facual-wise, but maybe the final version will have more.

    Some good chances for tactics, but no-one really used them and just went head first, I actually got 3 kills in a row within a few seconds which made myself feel pretty proud. XD It also gives a good insight into how MGS4 will work. It generally feels much better than past games, aiming is much easier, and the different shooting options are nice. I knocked a guy over, only for him to turn around unto his back and kill me.

    I also like how in Capture the flag, the more points you gather the more attachments you can add to your weapons.

    But one annoying thing, when I was installing v1.01 update, it took 12 hours, it's clever to have a P2P option, but the least they could of done was let their http download work, in the end I just had a very slow download for a huge file. 12 hours with an average 12kb/s. >>

    Here is my latest video.


    There was an annoying problem with the video, as you would notice there were out of flow black transistions it's a common problem I get, and it appeared in my 'In Pieces' video, for some reason when I try to do a plan cross fade a really terrible back transistion happens instead, and there is nothing I can do about it unless I change the clips. But I had a rusked time limit for this and aswell as coursework and general busy life (a reason why it's been a while since my last video)

    But anyway here is the video and enjoy.

    Yes I've contradicted myself, I always make a point to add credits and I didn't. Well I didn't add it for the contest, and to be honest I have better things to do like coursework instead of adding credits. XD Yes I'm lazy.

    Very well timed, but lacked some flow and some effects didn't quite fit, but all other effects worked well. A very good video.

    Song: Almost Lost by InMe

    Yes I know, how arrogant of me to add my own video. But I didn't add it to the Top 5 for obvious reasons, due to my own bias towards my own video, but I think it deserves this at least. >> Also I want to use it as a way to promote this great band who doesn't get noticed in the world of AMV's. Anyway go me.

    A very good beta, I look forward to the final product.

    Hope you enjoy them all, and keep submitting! Maybe your video will show up here next time!
