It is just completely disgraceful that someone can go to the extent of morphing my face onto someone else’s body to create a sensational video.
A geek isn’t the skinny kid with a pocket protector and acne. There can be computer geeks, video game geeks, car geeks, military geeks, and sports geeks. Being a geek just means that you’re passionate about something.
Kids don’t even read comic books anymore. They’ve got more important things to do – like video games.
I moved to California when I was twelve and I got a video camera and made little movies because I didn’t have any friends yet. I would force my sister to make these movies with me – which became my YouTube channel.
Weezer’s ‘El Scorcho.’ I’m in a ’90s cover band called ‘Straight 2 Video’ with members of the crew from ‘The Vampire Diaries,’ and we played this song at our wrap party. I grin from ear to ear every time I scream this song in my car.
I’ll post a video, and it might get 10,000 comments, and I’ll scroll through and they’ll all be lovely and nice – but then they’ll be one saying, ‘I hate you; I’m unsubscribing’ and that’s the one that sticks out and stays on your mind all day.
My first music video was Falguni Pathak’s ‘Meri Chunar’ when I was 15. Then came ‘Shake It Daddy,’ which brought me a lot of recognition.
I moved to L.A. I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to do, but I really like the entertainment industry. I started to make videos on YouTube to get more comfortable being in front of the camera. The first video I filmed was with my sister.
All my life I’ve been that way – ever since I was a kid. It doesn’t matter whether we played video games or even before that when we had board games when you played with your sister and mom and dad – I didn’t like losing then and didn’t want to do anything but win when we played.
I have a lot of kurtas and Rajasthani-patterned clothes. So I really wanted to do something with an Indian flavour. Shooting the video for ‘Lean On’ was like a dream come true for me.
But listen, there’s a reason that ‘Baby Shark’ is the the most-watched or the second most-watched video on YouTube of all time. It’s a catchy one. It just gets you right down deep.
I love video games. I’m also slightly in awe of them. I’m in awe of their power in terms of imagination, in terms of technology, in terms of concept. But I think, above all, I’m in awe at their power to motivate, to compel us, to transfix us, like really nothing else we’ve ever invented has quite done before.
I think, pretty much like everyone around my age, I grew up playing those classic video games. I wouldn’t say I was addicted to them, but I definitely liked them.
My new music video, ‘My Life’ featuring Eminem and Adam Levine, the only person in the actual video who you can physically make out besides myself and Adam Levine is Andre Dirrell.
Surely in a world of email, video conferencing and virtual assistants, isn’t being expected to show up at the office extremely anachronistic? Yet to date it seems that where one works does matter. That creativity and innovation do feed off physical interactions between people.
‘YouKu’ means what’s best and what’s cool in Chinese. So, the whole product philosophy really revolves around how to help users, from a massive video database, finds what’s best and what’s cool.
I think a punt can be a big play in a game. If it’s anything like a real game, then you realize that a Pat McAfee punt that downs someone inside the 2-yard line can really swing a game. I’m all for punting in video games.
Video is crucial to the future of media: premium video in that respect.
We spent zero dollars on advertising. We just had a YouTube video and that was it. We did a quarter million dollars in revenue, just in three weeks.
South Park started as a little video Christmas card.
Video games are meant to be just one thing: Fun! Fun for everyone.
Older generations of Wi-Fi weren’t quite robust enough to deliver video in the home without breaking up and losing packets and so forth. 5G Wi-Fi gives you extended reach, extended data rates, and more robust coverage.
I’m kind of a ‘Fix-It Felix’ video girl. I like the simpler, sweeter kind of games.
While girls average a healthy five hours a week on video games, boys average 13. The problem? The brain chemistry of video games stimulates feel-good dopamine that builds motivation to win in a fantasy while starving the parts of the brain focused on real-world motivation.
Every age has its storytelling form, and video gaming is a huge part of our culture. You can ignore or embrace video games and imbue them with the best artistic quality. People are enthralled with video games in the same way as other people love the cinema or theatre.
For the most part, I think video games do a good job of capturing the essence of boxing. However, I’d like to continue to see them push the realism, emphasizing the skill involved.
When it comes to independent music albums, you cannot put in 50 lakhs or a crore in each and every song to first make a video and then even promote it. It’s not possible for a musician or a singer to promote each song. It’s not possible for musicians to do that independently.
Ninety percent of video game AI really is pretty damn bad. I think that’s actually why it’s so much fun to shoot things. Because the AI is so bad and the characters are so annoying.
I was just a little three-year-old kid, and I loved Hulk Hogan. And when you’re a three-year-old kid, you don’t list off the reasons. I was just drawn to him. He was always my favorite, even in the video games and everything like that. He was the one that I always remembered and liked the most.
People want to watch whatever video they want to watch whenever they want to watch. If you provision your Internet infrastructure adequately, you can do that.
DivX Plus Streaming is adaptive bit rate streaming solutions, which means it works by detecting a user bandwidth and CPU capacity in real time and adjusting the quality of the video stream accordingly.
There’s nothing in the Bible that says, ‘You must play video games.’
My fantasy had always been making a music video and performing with music that I had created.
All things take time. A lot of my films still run on cable and are in video stores, and there’s a whole generation that doesn’t know who I am. So, it’s a dichotomy. In some people’s minds I may never grow up.
Advertisers and marketers should be looking to bring new experiences to different parts of the brain. It’s a more profound idea than just dropping a billboard into a video game.
Children need to move to develop their brain; it’s a natural urge. That’s why boys will run after a ball and play soccer despite how many video games are available to them, and they can’t help themselves from building with Lego bricks as well. They want to be creating something that’s uniquely their own.
Like most athletes, I like to go home and relax. I try not to bring the game home with me. I might play some video games that are, let’s just say, for mature audiences only. And I might get some flak for this, but I like to watch ‘Seinfeld.’ Sometimes, laughter is the best medicine.
I don’t know if it’s a movement, but the only thing new that’s happening is that I think music and art and video and fashion are all kind of thrown into one big ball that’s on television, and people see that all the time – you see a fusion of all those things.
I find it a turnoff whenever men aren’t into some kind of sport. And, no, video games don’t count. I dated a guy who was into video games, and I wanted to shoot myself.
I made all their videos, apart from the last two, so if you ever see an Abba video on TV then it’s my stuff.
The visual elements of the videos, the makeup and the costumes… these things have nothing to do with justice and truth, but nonetheless, it really changes the experience of the video.
I’ve always had a fascination with pirates. You know, I’ve written a song completely inspired by I want this to feel like pirates, you know, fighting together, made a music video about it, yada, yada.
I don’t really rely on watching video monitors. They put you at a certain distance from your actors, and it makes me feel less a part of what’s really happening in the scene.
So many of us, we love these things that come from Japan. We play the video games every day, we read the manga, people watch the cartoons, they absolutely love it.
I’d just gotten into Los Angeles from Texas, where I live, and the phone rang and it was the guy calling about the Willie Nelson video. I was totally excited about it.
My work ethic is crazy. I’m a producer, an artist, and a video director.
Video games are so popular these days, getting the opportunity to star in one is something special. More people should do it.
Everything about filmmaking is incredibly weird, and there’s nothing natural about watching yourself on the big screen or hearing your voice. It’s that same thing that you feel when you watch yourself on a video camera and you hate the sound of your voice – it’s that times 800.
There I am, chain-smoking and watching YouTube videos in my bedroom at 6 A.M. when a spoken-word video comes on the screen. I knew I had to do it: that it was another part of me that needed to be explored.
There is no casting director; there is no producer monitoring your upload button. Anyone that looks like anyone can upload a video. I think YouTube and the digital space does set a really good example for the rest of the industry in that sense.
