Michael's Gridlock Excursions

    For this assignment I was tasked with taking a movie trailer and mixing it with another trailer in whatever ways I could. When I saw this assignment I immediately thought of the 28 Days Later mashup that I had done before and was eager to do something similar. On a side note, doing the 'Bad and Sunny' was noticeably harder to complete due to the PC I was using at the time, and not wanting to spend time dealing with bad (but free) software I downloaded a Trial for Sony Vegas video editing software. The software is honestly the best I've used so far - better than iMovie even - so this video turned out pretty good. But it's bad. Really bad. Not for anyone too young or the faint of heart. Seriously. Enjoy.

    For this assignment, I had the task of finding a music video and placing a new song behind it while trying to make the two fit as best as possible. When thinking about how I would somehow make essentially two songs fit together, I decided to pick two songs that happened to have the same BPM (Beats Per Minute), and use the video for one. Luckily enough, The Beatles and Migos with Lil Uzi Vert had something in common - their BPM. Overall it all turned out pretty well too - Enjoy!

    For this assignment I was tasked to Superimpose - or 'blend' two images together. The two things that made this assignment worthwhile were the quick 3 min tutorial on a useful technique in GIMP and how long the example for this assignment had me laughing. In the spirit of that, I tried to do something comedic as well. And so here's Nicolas Cage watching TV.
