A video clip section?

Post by DubT »

I love this site and all the bands that play in it i currently have like 20 songs from this site on my ipod and i want to give back to the site in some way. Unfortunately i don't have any musical talent so i want to enter a short movie clip about songfight. If people could do that this site would be even cooler

Well, sir. This is an open forum, pretty much. You are free to post a link to said video to get the ball rolling.

Are you saying you'd like to develop a video clip based on one of the fight titles (not unlike the title art)? Or somehow encorporate video into the songfight life-style? Or base a video clip on some of the music that is produced for past fights? What sort of thing are you thinking?

I would think, just out of the box, that posting a link to a video clip you produced inspired by Songfight would gather a good deal of attention. It's always cool to see other people participating somehow. And I for one am interested in one day collaborating with video producers.

Well you know how when you were on AOTS how they were comparing the name of the site to fight club maybe something to do with that like a fight with acoustic guitars are something i am not sure yet. Not a serious video just something for laughs and giggles.

I am a huge fan of the songfight logo of the guy with the acoustic guitar beating on the guy with the trumpet.

I just want to buy some old crappy acoustic guitar and get some other old instruments and have a battle royal with some friends like the fight from Anchorman.

There used to be an unrelated site called filmfight (i think) where people made little films every week in a similar voting way to here .....

I can't find it anymore, it may have gone or I might have the name wrong.

Anyway ....

I will cry at the sight of instruments being destroyed. Use old brass. Real damage to the participants and the instruments should survive in some form. Plus, who doesn't want to know who would win in a free for all between a helicon, tuba, euphonium and sousaphone?

I don't see how that's even a contest. The tuba clearly defeats all who would dare take it on.

I would guess a lot of people feel that way. On the other hand, that scene from Animal House with John Belushi smashing a guitar to bits is pretty funny.

That's the only funny part in that movie, I would argue.
