There's not enough LOL in the world for this one. Great idea to keep the song list secret it made the switch really surprising. I was rolling during that dancing part and the ending is genius. Hell the whole thing is genius keep making these hilarious vids man. 64 MB for a 3 mn 1080p video? WTH? Give me your secret now!
The solution to small file sizes is really simple. You just use Quicktime PRO to export to H264 MP4. I used 2500 as the video bit rate and that was it.
Also your big Matrix one doesn't work on a PS3. I had to convert it via this method to get it to play. You might wanna redo yours to save on space & download times. Export it out of your timeline as an uncompressed MOV and export from there.
Thanks for the tip man. There's a loss in image quality but the size is more manageable. I think somewhere around 120/130 MB is the ideal size/quality ratio for me.
The image quality issue arises from the original MP4's I was working with - they had that slight layering effect to begin with, its got nothing to do with way Q.T. Pro encoded out my vid.
The very first 4-6 shots of the vid is actually up-scaled Standard Def source (720x576) which is why it doesn't look as good. Couldn't get my hands on a high def version of that scene.
Yeah I remember you saying you were going to do it for the Premieres show at VVC, and then when it didn't appear I just assumed you gave up on it similar to your Alice one. So I thought I'd give it a shot.
But at least you don't have to make one now, hey? :)
LOL, that was extremely enjoyable! I can't believe you did so much with just that one character's source from the movie. It didn't seemed forced at all, which shows you are a master!
Thanks CA! I didn't have much footage to work with and pretty much every Hammer scene is in there. Scratch that - its pretty much every Hammer frame from the movie!

Okaaaay, I'll take that song off a timeline I had parked in order to work on Festivids 2010. That's one Club Vivid 2011 vid I don't have to make now!
*lol*
(No worries. Mine would have totally sucked in comparison.)
