A good resource. . . .

This week's blog will be another short one pertaining to our machinima projects. I want my video to be as exciting to watch as possible for a 17 year old using windows movie maker. That being said: what makes a video exciting? Epicness of course! And what makes a movie epic? More often than not, it's not the actual footage used but the way it corresponds with background music of epic proportions :D. To find said epic music, I simply went to the faithful YouTube and searched 'epic music'. There was a lot to sift through but after a few days of searching, I found one 'artist' that had some great sound clips. They are called Immediate Music and they mix some orchestra, some rock, some techno, and some choral aspects into their songs. All in all: epic. So I'm putting a link to some of their videos on YouTube so some of you guys can use the music too. Just use the Fire Fox Download helper to download the video and then take this downloaded video to Zamzar.com or a similar conversion site to change it into an MP3 file so that you can use it as audio in Windows Movie Maker. If you look on the left under the 'related videos' sidebar you will see a whole bunch of their songs so go check 'em out. I'm sure you will find something great :) The best part is that they want you to use their music so it doesn't infringe any copyrights (even if you weren't putting your own mash-up along with it)

(( By the way. . . I have dibs on 'With Great Power' by Immediate Music so you can't use it for this project ;) ))
