therienneFrancesca Coppa is putting up five days of vids and commentary over at the Media Commons Project, and she has started the week off with the previously unpublished-on-the-web "Pressure" by California Crew.
You know how you think vidding is hard now? Well, in the old days, they had to walk uphill both ways to Hollywood themselves, film the shows in their spare time, and draw the special effects in by hand! And this vid proves it! It's a meta commentary on how things used to be done -- tape, tape, caffeine, stopwatches, gruelling handwritten notes as to the timing, because you mostly only got one shot, and if you didn't lay the section of the vid down correctly, that was it, and vcrs built by cavemen.
Seriously. The fact that there anyone stuck it out is an amazing testament to their perseverance and talent and extraordinary stubborness. And also their psychosis.
Go watch right now!
