Babies On Board

As Featured on [Geeks are Sexy] Technology News: http://www.geeksaresexy.net/2010/11/21/babies-on-board-video/

There's a very talented multi-track artist by the name of Julien Neel, also known as Trudbol on YouTube and Reddit. A number of his videos have been featured on Reddit's front page recently, and between his renditions of "Everybody wants to be a cat" and "Let me call you sweetheart," I was very impressed.

One song which has been covered by many a capella groups -- as well as Julien Neel -- is the song from the Simpsons, "Baby on Board"

Not only was this covered by Julien Neel, but also by another multi-track artist on YouTube, a woman whose online handle is "gwenatav."

After hearing the two versions of the song, I thought to myself: Certainly if they can synchronize themselves, I could synchronize them to each other!

As it turned out, it wasn't quite so easy. There were slight differences in timing and tempo which meant I had to alter Gwenatav's part slightly, cutting out moments of silence so the two would sync up. Since choppy video would be unacceptable, I had to do my best to match up what I could -- compounded by the fact that Gwen's video was recorded in 25fps and Julien's at 30fps. That said, I'm happy with the results!

Good work man. You should post this as a video response to my video, it would get you some traffic.

Cheers,

Julien

i have a suggestion, you could try raising the volume of Gwenatav :)..its a bit to low

@trudbol Only you could have both "highest rated comment" spots.

Pretty good, but on my machine at least, his voices sound much louder than hers.

trudbol is much better than gwenatav

Good job editing, my friend.  That must have been tough with 25fps vs 29.97 fps. Oh, and the singing was great too.

Nice double version. I bet your kids will love to hear you two sing this to them as a duet! ^^
