I have just uploaded a video edited entirely backwards, Everyone who saw it in beta had positive things to say and I hope anyone who watches it enjoys it. Feel free to leave a review too!

This isn't the first.

Someone made an Eva/Radiohead song and did it.

Search for it on the org. You'll find it.

I've seen that video. It's backwards? I knew it had to do with insanity/stuff, but I didn't think it was edited backwards.

UncleMilo made Flash Before Your Eyes almost four years ago. It's entirely backwards. It doesn't look like the download link works anymore, but I uploaded it to YouSendIt for anyone who wants to take a look at it (as long as the YouSendIt link stays up, anyway), because it's a pretty sweet video. I highly recommend it.

Now as for your video, it was pretty well-edited. It was creepy, too (which is good because it's probably what you were trying to do). Too short in my opinion, though. It didn't stick in my memory for very long. But still a good effort. 3/5

Thank you for your feedback. The song itself is 59 seconds, so there was only so much I could do for length. Honestly I never thought I'd release the video. Having it be memorable would be asking too much I think. I hope anything else I put up will improve to the point of remaining memorable. Also, thanks a lot for the information. I look forward to seeing that video.

A quick note, though. That video used the footage in reverse, which is a cool idea, but not what I did. I edited with the footage forwards and the song backwards. Then reversed the export. My way is probably easier in a lot of ways (with the definate exception of not being able to deliberately synch to the lyrics, lol)

Hmm, that's an interesting way of doing it. It's not too hard to reverse the footage in Premiere, you just set the speed to -100%. That's what I do when I want a scene to go backwards. But whatever works, I guess.

Uncle Milo's one is insane (... and more enjoyable in my opinion,

) but this one, I think, is even more insane. The song (could be) backwards as well!!! Never heard this song before (again

) so I don't really know. But, yeah, too much insanity. Fun video though. Good times with Edutainment ;p lol.

I've been expiramenting with speeding up songs (OC remixes are AWESOME sped up!!!), it is tons of fun, so I can see the draw.

Actually you could just -uh- tell it to reverse ;p

or is that just premiere pro ;p it's easier when -100% just won't do it, say you need -80% or -120.
