INDIE ROCK SONGS

There are dozens of websites on the Internet nowadays that let you not only upload your videos, but make it as easy as butter to add eye-candy effects, song tracks, video titles and so on.

However, as with all experimentation, things don't always go as planned.

In this video, I took video tape I recorded from an Arctic Monkeys concert in San Francisco and spliced it together using MuveeMix. For the song, I used "Flourescent Adolescent", but realized after "Brainstorm" was the more appropriate choice.

Next, I added the 'old fashion' theme to the video to give it a gritty look. The results of this experiment were mixed.

Half way through the video, the song track added skips and keeps on skipping. So, for all intent and purposes, enjoy the first half of this video and ignore the rest until I can figure out what went wrong.

But worst of all is that once I embedded the video I created into this page, the video itself would simply never load on the page, causing the web browser to crash. Meanwhile, the YouTube videos load up and play without a hitch.

Therefore, based on this experience, I would not recommend MuveeMix, but I'd love to hear some other opinions of folks who have used it successfully and how they overcame these issues, most especially the bandwidth issue. If the video doesn't load on the webpage, then what's the point?

Therefore, in the meantime you can see my ill-fated attempt to create a cool video using MuveeMix. It looked promising, but didn't deliver. One way is to look at it is something like this:

Dang that Chinese food smelt and looked great, but I was up all night with stomach cramps and vomiting.

That's a summation - alas - of my experience with MuveeMix. Let me know when you get it really working to meet the demands of 2008 expectations.
