LYRICS:
Today my essay is due
I need to get this thing done right now
Ive tried but nothing is working
I forgot
I cant do this on my own

And rule six can

Do not break sentences in two

I remember this video now as my LA teacher this year brought it up already that we were doing it again this year. Now ya got competition. I near professional video editor (me) and a freerunner (also me) =D Let the most professional looking flashy video with catchy lyrics win!

[bmwooden13]

@Zarek49 well good luck with that. you will probably win, because we aren't doing the strunk and white video this year. we are doing the TAG movie. good luck!

[Zarek49]

@bmwooden13 Thanks man. So you're doing a TAG video this year? Never even heard it mentioned before, what exactly is it?

[bmwooden13]

@Zarek49 the TAG video is a different assignment. If you're unfamiliar with the TAG class, you can ask Mr. Haskey about it but the assignment is all throughout the 4th quarter. And its a film of anything you want, the only requirement is 15 minutes long. But you also have to print the script, give him the cast and crew list, make a poster for it... etc. There are many options open and i think we will make a good film that way.

[Zarek49]

@bmwooden13 I believe my friend is in that class. Sounds like a pretty cool assignment. If you need any help with that poster yo can send me a message and I will see what all I can do. I have a program called Adobe Aftereffects CS5. It is pretty freaking amazing. For long length videos though I would recommend getting Adobe Premier CS5 along with Sony Vegas Pro 9.0. I have the 64-bit version which most Windows 7 or Windows Vista users can run. Hope that helps any. =)

[bmwooden13]

@Zarek49 thanks dude. i wish i could get After Effects CS5 but i dont have the money right now. My mom is getting me a macbook pro though and i think its coming with Final Cut Express. I cant wait to edit video on a mac rather than a pc.. haha

[GlitterSkater]

this video is amazing Bryson!!!! Honestly, I about fell to the floor when I watched this!!!! -Julie

[TheLaughoutloudlol]

wow! That was really cooll!!

[Zarek49]

@bmwooden13 I have yet to see that program. I think editing videos with a mac would be a pain. Just due to the lack of memory it could have. My computer currently has 1070 gigs of memory. Plus about 20+ more gigs available through flash drives. Plus, I haven't tried it yet, but it might work, you would have to shell out a little extra for a wireless mouse. For efficiency really.
