Tube It (The YouTube Community)

[cloneddragon]

this video needs more comments and views!

[kebellutahedu]

What's the user account name of the funny old man at the beginning of this video?! He's funny! Thanks again BGenerous!

Timeless ;-))

[BGenerous]

Thanks, Ali :)

In hindsight, this is sort of a video time capsule of the early days of the YouTube community.

[evertonian6]

why did the comments stop?

[BGenerous]

Because this video is really old!

[evertonian6]

but there's a load of videos that are older than this and getting hundreds of comments each day. i know it was featured, i saw it a year ago but i thought it'd still be popular now

[taduralacrisis]

[majestia19]

Awesome, I love it, glad to see it's gotten a lot of views. I especially liked mikma signing the world. :)

[BGenerous]

YouTube wouldn't be YouTube without the mikma!

[DeiSenpai]

its believe me fortminior not high road

[TrueBlueAustralian]

Really well done..!!!!!

[jerrui1]

similar to high road from fort minor O_o

[BGenerous]

The music comes from a GarageBand loop (Orchestra Strings 8).

Fort Minor used the same loop.

[PinkLemon912]

That was amazing!

[likecards]

What an awesome video. Cool!

[marksplace2008uk]

Awesome :)

[ThOverdrive]

This is one of the best videos I have seen since I joined Youtube - this is exactly how I picture Youtube when I click that red button but I have never been able to put it in an under 3 minute video. Wow. How is this not featured?!?!

[BGenerous]

Thanks Beau!

(This video was featured on April 15, though it was on YouTube's front page for only one day.)

[ThOverdrive]

wow I don't know whether to be sickened or outraged or both - I rarely favorite a video but I could not help myself on this one. Was very happy to of come across your channel this morning.

Any idea why it was only featured for one day?

[BGenerous]

It was one of 12 videos featured that day as part of a trendspottingtuesday theme about collaboration videos (see playlists for that channel). It happened to be at the bottom of the page, so the next day when another new video was added to the features, this one was pushed on to the second page. Since this video was posted only two days before that, it was very lucky to have been included at all! So it's all good.

[ThOverdrive]

Wow, well that would explain how I missed it, I usually only watch the featured videos when they stick out and if it was one of those ten at once things then that explains it. Either way you did exactly what I was wanting to do when I was going to make a subscriber shout out video a while ago. To get the 4 moving clips on one screen and rotate it in order while matching it to the song how many tracks did that take and what program did you use for that. Just couldn't figure it out.

[BGenerous]

I used Final Cut Express. I used 10 video tracks: four video tracks to make the basic video, four for subtitles, one for the full-screen clips, and another temp track.

[ThOverdrive]

I am going to have to for sure look into Final Cut Pro - hey even if it only turned into a One Day Feature, you still have a claim to fame that most of us don't and you know that you earned it, unlike a lot that get it.

[DHammerr]

this video is SOOOO cheesy gross and just plain lame. makes my hair on my hands stand up.

[Kidkel69]

Just beautiful!

[filemen2]

haha mikma is the best.

[BGenerous]

totally!

[Justino111]

GOT THE POWER?? GOT VOICE?? REVOLUTION??? CHANGING THE WORLD???? FEED THE KIDS??? come on youtubers, GET REAL. People who really need help will never SEE a computer in their entire lives. Youtube is just another TOY for you to enjoy. Get real, you won't change anything simply because YOU DON'T WANT THINGS TO BE CHANGED!!!!

[Danielsappendige]

It would be a BLAST if you did a version featuring 80 permabanned Tubers

[MrShitheadisback]

zzzzzzzzzz

[earthmother]

Tube It?

should be Mute It

other than that, not bad

[TalkingStudio]

great song!!! im sure i commented twice!! i was wondering if there is an instrumental(that means no lyrics)? cause im hoping to make a parody of this.

[BGenerous]

Renetto has an instrumental version you can download at

[DelisaProductions]

BRAVO! Love it, very catchy song. Great to see all the superstars in one video. These promotional videos always do so well on here, by the number of hits on got on this, it was a very clever idea.

[HurricaneThePsycho]

Addictions Rawk

[SamHarrisCOM]

[TalkingStudio]

such a good song... cant stop watching it... pls put the lyrics in the descirb! :):)

[BGenerous]

You can see the lyrics in the description for renetto's video (that this video is a response to). The description box for this video is full with the credits--YouTube won't let me add any more to it!

[TalkingStudio]

oh thx!

[k3vination]

Wow, this is great very nostalgic. I'm gonna put this on my page. Great job

-Kevin

[BGenerous]

[MomoDelicious]

This turned out great! :)

[BGenerous]

Thanks, and thanks for being a part of it.

And thanks to DoctorMetropolis' hand too. :)

[andymooseman]

Wow, that was great. That must have taken a lot of effort to put together.

Well done :)

[BGenerous]

Thanks Andy! I did spend a lot of time on it, but I had a lot of fun too.

[TalkingStudio]

[groomdoggi]

Hey!  Where's Buns and Chou Chou??

[nalts]

GREAT piece!

[BGenerous]

Thanks nalts! Viral Video Genius guy was a real asset to the project. When we could tear him away from the craft services buffet table that is.

[purelaker]

u tube is the revlution of 21 century!

after 20 years people will talk about utube era!

[SplitPZ]

Awesome editing!

Great job!

[BGenerous]

Thanks! I ♥ editing. :)

[evertonian6]

i really respect all the work you went through to make this video, which shows that some power has been given back to the people.

[BGenerous]

Thanks. Let us hope that power is used for good. :)

[fonephat]

Clever video.

[badamj2000]

Excellent video! Clever, great selections/editing and understated. It really captures idea of global community without any narrative bias or distortion. Good production too. Only query is , what about copy-right? Did all these people formally permit you to 'sample' their videos?

[BGenerous]

Thanks for the kinds words.

And yes, they did give me permission. An important part of this project was getting permission. Needless to say, contacting all these people was quite an effort in itself.

[badamj2000]

I thank for ur thank you. :)

[Hellfighter65]

still like this allot.

[ciarrella]

that was very well done!

[Hellfighter65]

awsome and favored man kick ass

[monello198]

bloody good..

5*****

;-}

[misterfisherman]

youtube community video in 8 years time is a video full of muslims and veiled women.no others are allowed to be in the video

[maryann712]

This was incredible. Well done.

[Lazlo7321]

Youtube: An invention that rivals the printing press.

[lazorice]

Nice job on the editing, and Renetto, great job on the song.

[337chad212]

love it

[anmoose]

I've watched this a half dozen times, and I like it better each time. It's a remarkable cross-section of what this Community is all about, wrapped up in a very well crafted video. Mikma's signature at the end is perfect! And I'm amazed that it got featured almost immediately after you posted it! Wow!

I'm proud to have been a small part of it! Thanks!

Has Renetto seen it yet? It's undoubtedly the best use ever of his song.

Moosie

[BGenerous]

Thanks for the kind words Moosie, and thanks for being a part of it.

All I know is Renetto accepted this as a video response to his "Tube It" video, so I'd think he's seen it. I haven't tried getting in touch with him yet though.

[Alec693]

Great video man!

[brookbannersexy]

just down loaded it love to take down loads

[lazorice]

Awesome...I have this on my iPod already...

[lysergicaddict]

I wonder what socrates would have said about youtube if he were still around...

things would be very interesting indeed, a bit disappointing at times, but intriguing nonetheless. Of course, things can always get better, but when your better is someone else's worse, who is to blame and what is to do? A Loving compromise? In whose eyes? Oh well, Love you, all of you, even the haters. Dont worry, Im nobody. Just some ascii in the screen flicker...

[feelie75]

Nice work, lots of effort put into this I'm sure. Man, keeping track of all those videos and people! sheesh...

thank you for sharing!

[BGenerous]

Thanks goodness for spreadsheets. ;)

[Playboy000408]

i am going to fucking murder you, this is not a joke

[nora2888]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh my god thats hilarious

[ryanyi]

[killedbythewolf]

this video is amazing!!!!

[docjazz4]

Haha, loved the mikma was here :)

[SobnaTemperatura]

great song...great video

[airdriver]

Y'know, I think Chad and Steve started something here with Youtube. Probably the biggest media phenomena since the invention of cable/satellite tv and the internet itself.

[tifveeey]

we say "YOUTUBE IT" more then TUBE IT.

[cooksterz]

Great collage of these great Tubers! Tube it!! It Tubes!!

[BurningChrome]

What a bunch of self indulgent pricks!

[fig1821]

Awesome VID!!!!!

[cristoinhumano]

damn no visible mode that just sucks.

[NISFilms]

just caught the bitch cheating

[BRENTMANFILMS]

great song

[CapnOAwesome]

Haha, I like how I'm listed under serious topics.

[BGenerous]

Well, you do deal with serious topics, even if your approach isn't always serious. Besides, with that gesture it LOOKS like something serious, and that's really all that matters here. :)

[kotenshu]

Worst song ever... its like the first loop anyone ever clicks on when they see garage band.

LAME!

[SergeLipski]

where the hell was one of my videos?!

[PerishBrave]

loved the "mikma was here"

[ario8]

My 15 min turned into an hour... how true is this statement?

[BGenerous]

As it turns out, very. :)

[bazbal]

Very cool video for the song. Was wondering if anyone would ever do a video like this for the song.

[duanchung]

Thanks Mike! Oooh, you have autoplay too! :)

[KilltoSurvive666]

[BiggleBob]

it would make a good promotional video if everyone didn't already know about youtube.

[BGenerous]

Thanks.

A lot of people do know about YouTube.

A lot of people don't know what YouTube is about.

ooh, that sounded so profound ;)

[BiggleBob]

hah that was cool

it would make a good promotional video if everyone didn't already know about youtube.

[octavia9]

[sarahjeanne18]

Awesome!! What a great view of YouTube at its best!

[Autonymous9]

This is what its for, man. Beautiful work. One World at it's best.

[infinity38]

Wow, how sad that anyone would film themself and post it in here. Like what they have to say would mean anything

[illnoise]

LOL. Dude, you realize the tag line on this site is "broadcast yourself" right? If you think filming yourself is sad, then you should probably close your browser now.

[BGenerous]

Haha - priceless! :D

[BeechSundowner]

Good video!
