Congratulations to the 2 winners: Kinudin (Soul Fyre) and Oli.
Your timing was impeccable, I only posted those clips for a couple hours.
They are gold dust
Plenty more where that came from

Kinudin, for the past two nights i've been cutting up all those little clips, 201 clips from 80 minutes of film.
I showed them to a buddy of mine over in Vancouver. They are completely un edited and some of the names are incorrect.
The good news is that I will very soon upload them onto spherculism.com, I'll loop them so that the file downloads are quick and i'll add a bit of text to explain the finer points.
Please don't redistribute those clips 'cos I know that at least 3 of the names were wrong - my bad - It'll just cause mass confusion.
So, by this time next week i'll have everything you wanna see up and running:)
mrFlibble - I am certain that with a little guidence you will be able to take poi further than you can imagine. Have faith in your abilities, focus and remember to breathe.
Until then,

5 beat isolated = nice
tosses to hyperloops = nice
4 beat hyper buzzsaws = nice
between the legs hyperloops = nice (lil sloppy but forgivable
)
What can I say that hasnt been said in every post above...
Some questions though. What exactly are your poi made of? They seem like some sort of netting and metal bits?? I know I heard a clanking sound coming from them. Also, whats with the super fast spinning in certain parts? I thought you actually sped up the film at times till I turned up my sound and still heard your music playing normal in the background. Heh, just looks kinda fake. Lastly, what are the chances of you cutting the crap out of that 80 min vid, putting it all together to some phatty music and sending it my way? I think if you did that, it would be a great learning video for people of all skill levels.
Keep on truckin, Poi. Ya do good work.
[EDIT] Oh yeah, almost forgot... Hyperloop wraps = nice too Was workin on them myself a while ago but never got em to look as nice as yours so I gave up on em.

Royal, don't you ever get tired of just spinning slow? I dunno, maybe it's just Poipoi and I, but I just like spinning really fast every now and then to tire me out. 'Tis fun!

Hey, I'm glad you all like the clips.
I'm at my office now getting ready to post the final cuts. Suppin on a beer.
Sphercular ~:~ 'The illusion of 4 dimensional shapes created by 3 dimensional moving planes'
Spherculoid ~:~ 'A perfect 4 dimensional Sphercular Solid'
Spherculish ~:~ 'the closest humanly attainable Spherculoid'
Spherculism ~:~ 'The Act of becoming Spherculish'
A lot of th e stuff in that vid is pretty sloppy. I was trying to get everything down on film, and I was hot and tired by the end of it. We flood lit the backdrop with about 1500 watts of light!!
Anywho, i'm gonna start on those clips, i'll post the link here when i'm done
take it easy,

So then poiple.
What exactly do you wanna see in my tutorial vids?
What do you think would help you to understand poi more fully?
DO you want text desriptions for each move?
What file formats do you wanna download? Flash, WMF, AVI, MPEG?
I'll do my best to sort it out for you.

i'd quite like to see the vids in divx or mpg.
personally i never learnt anything from a text description, looking at a move with my own eyes is far better imho.
I think a well thought out camera angle would have an effect on how easy it would be to learn the moves. Have you experimented with various angles to get the best one? i have no idea what would be the best angle or whether it would vary depending on the move you're doing.
p.s. please do one where you're doing simple butterfly and weave isolations as slowly as possible so i can work out whats going on also can u do one showing how to do hyperloops?? pleeeeease

AVI or DIVX woudl be great. As long as it's WMA or is it MPEG I'm fine since windows media player is evil and won't let me watch videos. As far as text descriptions go, as long as I know what the move is called and waht makes it something instead of something else I'm happy. Don't go out of your way for me though.

Hey Rob, how's tricks? I've been downloading movies from poiinthepark (sweet site:))
Camera angles: Ive got a little trick up me sleeve for those, but you'll have to wait till i get round to 'spherculism 2' and 'spherculism 3'
Isolations and hyperloops will be in there for sure
I'll probably upload everything as mpeg4. But I still think that Flash is best across all platforms??? No???
Bluecat: You only got two vids cos I only put the other ones up for a couple hours. It was whilst I was cutting up the films, thought i'd share the stuff as i was going along. Then i realized that some of the names were wrong [late night, too much beer and erb]. Figured it would cause mass confusion among HOPsters. So I took them down again.
Good news is that i've sorted out a sweeet server, php'ed up to the eyeballs, and the vids will all be up soon.
easy,
