I’m currently working on a 2×4 channel installation for these video message boards in the Undergraduate Library at the University of Michigan for the Ann Arbor Film Festival. Each 4-screen array can play 4-channels independently or 1-channel can be blown up to occupy the 4-screens. As separate channels the system cannot achieve perfect sync. In order to have perfect sync I have to create a split-screen master that will then be blown up to fit each array. I’m still trying to figure out if I create a heavily edited video that relies on perfect sync at the cost of lower resolution (1280×720 is the max) or come up with a more basic concept.

Brought to you by Scotch… videocassettes. Paul Reiser makes his way around Hollywood in a mint Chrysler LeBaron visiting the great NBC celebrities of 1989 like Greg Evigan of My Two Dads and Richard Tyson of Hardball. Who?

In 2009, Casey Pugh asked thousands of Internet users to remake “Star Wars: A New Hope” into a fan film, 15 seconds at a time. Contributors were allowed to recreate scenes from Star Wars however they wanted. Within just a few months SWU grew into a wild success. The creativity that poured into the project was unimaginable.

SWU has been featured in documentaries, news features and conferences around the world for its unique appeal. In 2010 we won a Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Creative Achievement In Interactive Media.

Finally, the crowd-sourced project has been stitched together and put online for your streaming pleasure. The “Director’s Cut” is a feature-length film that contains hand-picked scenes from the entire StarWarsUncut.com collection.

Many thanks to Aaron Valdez (video editor) and Bryan Pugh (sound design/mixing) for the countless hours they put into this masterpiece.

We can’t thank everyone enough for making this such a special project.

These amazing videos were unearthed in Iowa City back in the Dark Ages. Sadly my copy of David Engel’s Pump It did not survive my escape.
