My latest project, "United we stand, divided we call," a video series that will continue in January after semester break. There is some mild infrequent swearing, but I did my best to find the cleanest version possible. As is my motto "I will never apologize for all the Greg Gibson."

 

 

I do apologize for the text, the ending, and the fact that I seem to always end up downloading videos of the same umpires over and over again.

An artist dosen't apoligize for his/her creations...well...maybe the decision to use rap music would be an exception.

I'm sorry for not being able to find an orchestral movement that expressed the difficulties of umpiring. :)

A+ on the video. D- on the "music" selection.

Music is an art no matter who creates it and no music should be considered inferior because of genre or artist. Don't slam it.

Gee, I should rename this thread to "Feel free to apologize here." Since you had an issue with this song choice, what would you suggest?

I don't know. I'm not a film maker or an editor. My son snowboards, and he makes videos and uses rap soundtracks as well. I asked him why he's using that music, he's not even into it..He says it's the easiest to edit and synch up with the video. He's taken the time and effort and  done some others with more mainstream classic rock, and the difference is remarkable.

Great video and no issue with the music. Dont let these old grey haired squares get you down!

Also a lot of Dan Iassogna, Brian Gorman, Angel Hernandez, and Tom Hallion.

There was not a lick of Tom Hallion in that video. But yes, a lot of Iassogna and Hernandez. Not much Gorman, unless you count the clips of his whole crew that I placed in there, simply because I like that crew...

The skate videos I've made, I wouldn't dream of using rap. Techno/dubstep works so much better...and I wouldn't use rock or pop (or any mainstream music) in most circumstances simply because I can't stand most of it.

Not true. Hallion is in there a couple times... especially at the very end.

I would say the majority is Gibson and Iassogna.

You think the amount of Gibson is too much? Try my blog. :rock

I like the video.

 

Music debates are so pointless.

 

"I like pop music because it's good"

"No, pop music is stupid. Jazz is good."

 

Any argument regarding someone's personal preference is going to be loaded with logical fallacies and lead to nowhere.

I wasn't looking for a music debate. 100% agree musical taste is an opinion and not open to debate. She wanted an opinion on her film. I gave my opinion...Loved the video, hated the audio. I'm not wrong or right. It's my opinion.

 I disagree. Not all music is "art". Creative, yes. Art, no.

I'm sorry. I disagree with you. All music is art to somebody. Just how a random drawing I might have made in sixth grade is art to me, but not to my friend. All music is a different form of expressing a thought, feeling, or idea, and that, my friend, is art.
