Daft things

Ok, so I remember talking about these videos on the last class - the one in which we recorded the video - and decided to put the videos up in here. The first one is actually my favorite...



... but the second one is also really cool!



Just for the curios, I'll post here the original one, from the movie:



Also, I found the movie on Google videos. If you are a fan of eletronic music (or just of Daft Punk), anime or science fiction, you should like this at least a little. If you hate all these things, well, don't say that I didn't warn you! Oh, and if you do watch it, ignore the guy speaking japanese at the beginning and move on to the movie...



Later!

151 jokes

In honor of the fact that Hank Greeen of the Vlogbrothers posted another "50 jokes in 4 minutes" video, today, here are the three videos so far, which means there are 151 jokes in this post (because the 2nd video had 51 jokes in it). He talks REALLY fast, so this is a challenge to you out there to understand the jokes. I really love the fact that most of them are just these nice, clean, children's jokes, some of which are really, really funny. So, here they are, in the order they were posted:







Also, just because I want everyone to like the stuff the Vlogbrothers do, I suggest you go to the Truth or Fail channel. It's a quiz channel and there are currently 4 quizzes there: the first one, which is about general knowledge, one about English things, one about Harry Potter details and one about American writers. Go there, it's fun!!

Later!

Quick update

Visit this site: Infinite Oz - Tin Man. It is AMAZING! Definitely one of the best flash sites I've ever seen.

Later!

Ok, just watch this...

It's really cool:



[seen on the Nerdfighers page]

Victory!!!

YES!! I got the video to work out. Not on YouTube, unfortunately. On Dailymotion, which means the quality is a little lower, unfortunately. But if you'd like to view the video in its original form, you can download it from Magaupload. It should be available for some time, but I'm not sure for how long. Anyway, here's the video:



On another note, I frind of mine sent me the link to this song, which I really liked:



It's a song with sounds taken from an old Disney movie I really like Called Mary Poopins. I realize the reference can be a little too old for some, so I'll post this other one, which is made with sounds from the first Harry Potter movie:



I know it's really strange, but I really like the way it sounds, for some reason... You can find other strange/trippy* songs on this guy's channel.

Later!

* Trippy: adjective which comes from the "acid trip", or the hallucinations you have when you are on acid drugs!

I'm still trying to figure out how to get the graduation video to play properly. I did upload it it, but MGM cut the sound off. Whatever. I probably will open an account on another video uploading site, and then try to upload the video there. Let's see if that works out. If you want to view the video anyway, you can watch it on youtube.

Anyway, I do have a couple of hints for now. I actually found out about these things a few days ago, but hadn't been able to write about them.

Ok, this is really cool: I know there are a LOT of these lego videos out there, but this one makes me think of my childhood:



Awesome. All of the videogame ones are really cool, really. I got the tip for this one in last week's episode of Gadgets (The Childhood nostalgia episode), which is this really cool podcast on CNet TV which talks about random technological things from women's perspectives. I also like Buzz Out Loud, go check it out. In fact, if you like technology at all, go check out CNet TV - I strongly recommend you go watch it - it's what I think (hope) TV is gonna be in the future (not what they talk about, but how it works). I was introduced to it by my brother with a Prizefight video which compared Lost to Battlestar Gallatica in a "fight", and it was awesome. Now that I know the people, it's even better. I strongly recommend the Prizefight videos, as well the Mailbag videos - these are my two favorite shows on CNet TV, along with Top 5 and the Buzz Report.

Talking about podcasts, for the other Lost freaks out there, there's this really cool Lost podcast [the link is for the second part of the coommentary about the last episode of season 5] over at Jovem Nerd - in portuguese - about the last season, along with some really cool theories and observations about the show in the whole. It's really cool, if you're into that sort of thing. Also their other podcasts are really fun, too, if you're curious about nerdy things.

Ok, enough for today! I'll check back with new stuff soon.

Later!

AARRRGGGGHH!

So I've beeen fighting with You tuge for a couple of hours now, trying to upload the graduation video, but can't. Apparently MGM thinks I want to tell people we wrote "Don't worry, be happy" or something - I mean, what other reason could they have for blocking the video? It's so stupid that it makes me angry. Anyway, I'm trying to upload right now, but I need some time for the video to process. If it doesn't, I'll upload it to 4Shared or Megaupload or something - let's see how it goes...

Just saying thanks...

Okay, I rally have very little time to do this, but I had to come here and say THANK YOU for yesterday. Not ony because you guys wrote and read that really cool text to me, which made me feel like a million buck (THANK YOU!!), but also because you guys were so AWESOME in the video. Thank you for letting me record while you guys were having fun. As soon as I have computer access again, I'll upload and post your graduation video. You guys were - well, are - amazing and I was happy to have been able to teach you.

(A very grateful) Later!

Updates

Ok, so I'm working on the graduation video right now, and having a lot of fun - but this is such hard work!! Anyway, I'm just updating because I promised myself I would not go more than 3 or 4 days withoup updating anymore.

On some Exciting News, it seems God is following this blog now. No, seriously, there is 1 follwer of this blog (you know, like when a person signs up to know when the blog is being updated) and he/she is signed in as God. I have no comment, I just think it's... kinda awsome. Hi, God!!

Anyway, just so I don't break tradition, here's a video for you. I ctually LOVE this video, and have since I first saw it, and I could kick myself for not showing it in class. I mentioned it, but haven't shown it yet:



That's it for this post. I finally found (again) the piece of paper where I wrote the things I meant to post when I was talking to some of you last saturday, and should be posting it soon.

Later!

Class Videos!!

The videos you guys made are up! Well, the ones I could upload, at least. There were two videos (the one with the bizarre news and the one with the little red cap story) which were in DVD form, and so I couldn't upload. If you guys can give me those videos in another format, I'll appreciated it! Oh, and there's also the stop motion video, which I'm still trying to figure out how make the sound work! Fingers crossed!

Anyway, that leaves us with three videos so far. I'll post the video we couldn't watch because of :aham: technical difficulties first:



Then, the other news program we did watch:



And finally, the Sex and the City reenactment:



Hopefully, I'll have the other videos up soon!

:)

Change of address and some updates

Ok, so I wanted to upload the videos you made today, but I can't find them in my computer. There's no reason to panic, though, because I have them all in the CD I took to class to show them to you. So I'll just upload them tomorrow, ok?

On another subject, as you can see I've already changed the address of the blog - I hope you all found it by now. I'm still wating for people to send the their contact requests so that they can post in here. I know Pedro asked me about it, but if anyone else wants to post, I'll be really happy to add you. Just leave a comment in any post so I can do that, ok?

I'll post some more videos later!

:)
