Indeed... I thought it was funnier as I knew it was all improvised - I gather even the hideous spinners didn't know what was going on

Yeah I remember that was emphasised at the moment when you (meaning Rob) approached Mynci who obviously had no idea what the hell you were talking about and then having him go 'ahhhh!' and then playing along...
Then Chris and Mynci skipping off into the distance making neanderthal noises without any prompting - genius...

The whole thing was improv......... we were out the house for no more than an hour...... cutting together has made it look like it was thought about, but trust me...... even i didnt know what was going on

when downloading from google, download as ipod or psp ... otherwise you need to download the crappy google video player, which plays files badly.. and i have a video converter and it says that it can convert googlevideo files but doesnt.. MPEG4 does it for me just fine... and if your player doesnt have that codec then you shouldnt be infront of a PC
hehe. newbie

I couldn't make out what I was seeing in the video. What where the poi spinners in the video using for handles? I have been looking for something that goes around my wrist that I can grip with my thumb and index finger, and thats what I thought I had just seen.

if google detects you've got linux, it lets you download the original movie file. win.
keepvid.com will also let you download the original file if you have a mac or windows.

haha... nice editing rob! i don't think much (except giggling and some concern over strugz's welfare) gets lost in translation if you don't know what you're watching (which those who saw the raw footage didn't) and bear in mind that rob was the only one who even had a vauge idea what was going on at the time. we were just carrying on normally...

I'm sure me and chris sidled up to strugz at some point and pretended to be "the females" ... on the night he looked quite panic-y
A couple of balls short of a full cascade... or maybe a few cards short of a deck... we'll see how this all fans out.

Regardless of orientation I'd be quite panicky too...
OKAY... All the videos I've downloaded Prior to 'Escape' are working fine. But now for some reason the ones I've tried to download since (including PIP) have taken an age to 'Connect' (as it says on the bottom of media-player and refuse to play.
It's the same when I try to open on any other player - quicktime/realplayer.
I be thinking I need new player with Codec etc...

i've been hoping to get 'skun up' into common usage for some time now. i think it makes perfect sense. and its sooo much nicer than 'skinned up'.
