• Comments: Well, my friends and I watched Beyond the Clouds on saturday night, and by monday morning I was talking with my roomate about how there were already 3 music videos out for it, and they were all pretty much the same. Romance & drama, which fit the movie just fine. My roomate thought this rather unoriginal though, and said that he said he wanted to see a video for it with things blowing up, like with one of my Tom Lehrer songs (Which I have a ton of). This was the first Lehrer song to come to his mind, so he suggested it. He quickly convinced me of this idea (on the day of a final exam), and 36 hours later, I've done it.
  
  So basically, it's all his fault.
  
  This was a quick video for fun, that turned out decent enough I think. Not a lot of planning, and had to strech for some of the footage (90 minutes only goes so far), but I think it turned out well.
  
  Had a lot of trouble with the source footage compression, ended up having to convert all the clips to huffyuv before I could use them.
  
  Any questions or comments are greatly appreciated.
  
  Hmm, maybe this should be in the comedy category as well, but it's mainly for fun, so I'll just mark fun.
