Re: [videoblogging] OH HELL!!!
We posted something I'd like to share with you all. This video was shot on the snowy shores of Lake Michigan and features a seriously stunning sunset at the end. http://blip.tv/file/166202 Aloha, Ron Watson On the Web: http://pawsitivevybe.com http://k9disc.com http://k9disc.blip.tv On Mar 11, 2007, at 10:19 PM, Shannon Noble wrote: I can't believe I actually posted something. http://x.nnon.tv/reasonable_illusions/2007/03/mountain_top_bo.html Where the frack have I been? -shannon -- Reasonable Illusions http://x.nnon.tv [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
Re: [videoblogging] OH HELL!!!
Sorry to hijack your thread. Horrible, horrible etiquette, especially if this was your first post. My response before editing was totally topical: joking about your spinning looking like my panning, and that we finally posted something 'good', but rejecting that because of the possibility that it might be thought that I was implying that your video was not. I also typed my entire reply before half the video downloaded; freaking cel phones... Anyway, sorry for the Seinfeldian aside, but I felt really bad about hijacking the thread, so I thought I'd comment. I'm not sure what the pretext was, but it looks as if you just started spinning the camera and let them do their thing. If that was the case it is interesting that the boys chose to express those things. It's funny how hackneyed rebellion has become. I also didn't care too much for the burst of violence. I guess this is just the hippy in me, but I really wish that were not part of their physical vocabulary so easily expressed and mimicked on film, and it was contagious. Standard stuff from boys, I understand, but it still disappoints to see how easy it is for violence to spread. I also found the peace signs juxtaposed with this rage to be interesting. So I guess your video led me to believe that things are just about like I thought they were, even on a mountaintop.

Re: [videoblogging] OH HELL!!!
I kind of figured that I was going to get the namby pamby label with the analysis. It is soft You can call them 'power moves' and all, but they were punches and kicks, and punches and kicks are gestures of violence. I think they are emulating what they see on TV: punchy, kicky violence, some irreverence, and thankfully they did something that is out of character on TV, and that is to speak for peace. I also really liked it when the camera stopped on the one boy when he was giving the finger. He looked as if he had just gotten caught. It was an interesting video.
