“Take On Me” the literal video version

October 6th, 2008

While the video is nothing new, this YouTube version is quite funny. They replaced the song with one which explains what is literally happening on screen.

This was a-ha’s only #1 hit in the United States. The video, directed by Steve Barron, was inspired by the animated short “Commuter”, created by Michael Patterson. The video also draws from the film “Altered States”.

Steve Barron went on to direct the live action “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” and “Coneheads”.

“Toe Jam”: the censors get to animate

September 25th, 2008

There is no nudity in this video by The Brighton Port Authority. The censors have black barred all of the “naughty bits” and middle fingers. The people in the video are aware of this however, and are using the censor’s black bars to create simple animations.

The video was directed by Keith Schofield.

It’s a great idea, a fun video, and a pretty decent song as well.

Luckily, we (and you) have this episode of Channel Fred to get you over the post-Memorial Day blues.

And lots of aspirin.
