On iTunes - "Junior Kickstart" - The Go! Team

I was surfing a little bit this evening, stuck on The Go! Team, when I came across the band's video for its fantastic song "Junior Kickstart." Not only is it a great video, it features Ms. Pacman. You just can't get more indie than video games from the 80s.

Happy Saturday.

On Video.

On the iPod - "Never Meant" - Owen

Lately, I've been learning a lot more about online video and video production. This recent venture into this recent venture into yet another new Web-oriented medium was born out of necessity to learn Brightcove's user interface. I've basically been learning how to convert QuickTime (.mov) and .avi files into Flash Video format (.flv). Brightcove has the capabilities of doing this for you, but I've been learning how to compress raw digital video files through Sony Vegas 7 Platinum Edition.

What I've come to find out is that Sony Vegas Platinum Edition is about as crappy as Sony's products. In retrospect, I wish I had Adobe's Premire or Final Cut Pro to work with. At any rate, all this focus on new video got me in the mood for checking out more video online.

Yesterday, I stumbled across a Bright Eyes video done by Cat Solen. I fell in love with its simplicity and its beauty. I'm not particularly a huge Bright Eyes fan, but it even made me like the song. Click on the image above to launch a clip.

More on video later tonight.
