hi, my friends and i are doing a "School Revue", where we take the mick out of all our teachers on stage, performed to the entire school. we were hoping to do a Lost parody.
i was wondering if anyone could give me a file(s) containing the following:
1) the opening of Lost (ie. where the word LOST zooms into screen)
2) the hatch count-down
3) where the count-down begins to play the alarm and turns into the hieroglyphics.
4) a scene showing the beach and sea as a whole (possibly the one where the plane crashes on the other side of the island..or any other pretty, scenic beach shot!)
this would be VERY much appreciated. plz could any files be posted via his thread OR send it to me via an instant message OR email ASAP.
thank you

I picked up the latest issue of Wired magazine because there was a very interesting looking article headlined on the cover that said 'What kind of genius are you?' (not really exact words). I ended up buying it because in both bookstores we were cruising through I started trying to read it when we had to go. I knew that if I read it I was going to find some interesting discovery made. And I was right. The bonus is that it's even applicable to vidding.
The basic gist of the article is that this David Galenson guy found a pattern of when some geniuses (in art, writing, filmmaking, economy etc) are the most successful and others are successful at later parts of their lives. He split it up in two groups: the Conceptualists, young geniuses like Picasso who made their greatest works in their late teens and early twenties, and the Experimentalists, who didn't make stuff that great early on until later, about fifties or sixties mostly, when they finally made their best and most successful works. The theory has been tested numerous times and all come up with similar graph results (price of paintings sold and age of artists). The conceptualists peaked early on and then slowly declined over time, and the experimentalists slowly came to their peaks later. Of course, it's not completely bulletproof as it's just a theory, but it's very considerable.
When I read this article I often thought of Lost Video Island. You know those newbies that submit their first music videos ever, that happen to be so oustandingly brilliant and above-average that they make the rest of us feel like losers? And some of us keep submitting videos that aren't awarded until later on, when we finally get our big breaks. Other things mentioned were that conceptualists plan the fruit of their inventions ahead of time, and doing it is just mere execution, while experimentalists have little or no thought before diving in, where execution is the most important part. Conceptualists are quick and dramatic, while Experimentalists are careful and quiet. Some examples of conceptualists were Picasso and....an experimentalist was Alfred Hitchcock. I'd list more but I can't find the magazine at the moment and don't have perfect memory.
I find it fascinating, enlightening and comforting. Now whenever a newbie submits the best video ever made, or something else to that effect in life, I won't have to think "Why wasn't I that good?" and slap myself in the face.
