Quality Assurance

Testing to see which service renders and manages raw HD footage the "best".  Leave a comment: which looks best in standard and HD. Thanks!

1) Facebook:

2) YouTube:

3) Vimeo: Uploading right now, as I totally forgot that I had a Vimeo account to upload onto. DUH.

KRU+Dtown from Michael Ytem on Vimeo.

 

Initial comments: Facebook uploads and processes footage alot quicker. HD Mode was ready to go in apprx 3-4 minutes.  YouTube's HD version, 10 minutes and counting. Of course, server traffic has to be taken into consideration, given that YouTube is probably processing 1,000 times more vids as Facebook is.  Vimeo, the upload was pretty fast. Afterwards, it notified me with a count down of when processing would be complete. Currently at.....34:49, 34 minutes...49 seconds. wft? Longest processing time.ever. AH. It's Vimeo's efforts to get you to "upgrade" as a Vimeo "Plus" member, where they say "Vimeo Plus Members are moved to the front of this line and never have to wait." LAME. I'm not going to wait another 40 minutes,therefore I will embedded the Vimeo vid tomorrow. Night.

What A Nice Time Capsule:Spaceship

So, it 4:30am, and I'm just browsing Youtube and Vimeo.  I'm a subscriber to Kanye West on Vimeo, and I see he just uploaded something, reading "2 hours ago".  It's a music video for Spaceship. 

 

I'm a bit confused because the video is of a song that I often jammed to my freshman year of college from his freshman debuting album "College Dropout" which is now 5 years old. My mind is racing out of confusion.  Did he decide to go back and make a vid for an old song? Did I just not see this music video ever?! Or.... was this just never released!!!?  Googled it. Found out he directed this way back when and never released it.

Long story short:

  • I love it when I witness breaking news first hand. 
  • I like this song. The video matched what I imagined it to be when I first heard it/continuously had it on repeat.
  • I'm still a fan.
