I was kinda of afraid of that reaction. (butchbud) I'm truly not trying to "best" or serve anyone. Really. I do this stuff for a living and I had the extra time, so why not create something that expresses myself?
Trust me...I envy those who did this lip sync thing and made it fun and silly. I wish I could pull that kind of stuff off, but to be honest, I'm too self conscious. The very fact that I did this was an exercise in asserting myself. It was never my intention to insult anyone.
And oh.. by the way.. since when is a day and a half too much time for anyone? Are we all that ramped up that we can't slow down and spend a little extra time to create something meaningful?
Allow me to thank you for showing us your video. I think everyone should take the time to step aside from the daily grind and create or do something meaningful, whatever it may be. I myself try to do this whenever I can.
Oh, trust me, you didnt insult me, and I doubt anyone else. There were no 'rules' set down at the start of this thing, and that's what made it beautiful. My comment about getting 'served' was not to say that our efforts are somehow lessened, instead it raised the bar by which someone can take this exercise. We are all better for it.
Again, there were no rules, specifications or guidelines to meet, just a lipsync. Each one is different. All are good. And I truly liked yours. Like I commented before, compare your meme entry with the kind of thing found on the television music stations. You made an incredible statement here. And you made it uniquely yours. I'm very impressed. The 'lipsync meme' just helped drive home the fact that there is incredible talent residing in some of my fellow LJers, and it goes a long way in keeping my faith in humanity in these days of questionable actions by others.
Please, keep up the good work (I cant stop watching this, it's that
