Vegas Video Challenge!

Hello all,
I have put together a little contest site for Vegas users. Well actually, I don't really call it a contest but more of a challenge, mainly because there is nothing to be won.

How it works:
I will post one challenge at a time. Each challenge will consist of a common file/files that everyone will use to create their entry. I will offer these file/files for download on the site. Each challenge will have a specific purpose and point to it, along with certain rules. I will post a deadline for recieving entries (will extend if needed). I will post every entry recieved and after the deadline will put up a web poll so that you all can vote on your favorites. The top five ranked entries will be archived and posted to a separate page along with the Veg file used so that others can learn from the best:)

The first challenge:
I call this one "Sound Off". I have a clip from the movie "The Ring" (downloaded from their website, not pirated:) ) What I did was cut all audio from the clip. The challenge is for you to download the clip and add your own sound. Simple enough. Use whatever you want, effects, music, dialogue, all of the above... You can make it funny, scary, dramatic or whatever, it's your call. The most important thing is to have fun!

Below is the link to the site.

Happy editing! -Shon

Try any of the following email addresses.

scobbs@frontiernet.net

shon@srcproductions.net

scobbs@broadband.att.com

I prefer people use either of the first two, but all three should work. -Shon

Wow, Sr_C, fascinating entry. Love to know what your media sources were and how you put it together. Not fair to provide such a great entry and make everyone compete against it!

I tend to get ahead of myself. I just reread your web page and realized where the media came from and even now understand the jist of the challenge! Anyways, you've created a great one!

Well I just sent in my entry. Made it in Acid3 pro with loops from BT's collections Breakz from the NuSkool and Twisted Textures. Etherial and Industrial at the same time. Trippy audio for trippy video.

thanks for the idea I needed a diversion tonight!

Thanks Williamconifer,


Your entry is now posted. Very nice work here. You really changed the feel from the original "suspense" to a slick industrial video. It always fascinates me how a diffferent selection of music alone can change an entire video.

Everybody should check this one out.

As well as submit your own ;)
