i got money in the bank, whatchu think about that?

thank goodness! the wait is finally over. for me that is, more than it is for you. i’ve spent the past three weeks or so duking it out with premiere pro, adobe after effects, final cut express hd, youtube, and vimeo… and now the wait is finally over.

for those of you who have no idea what i’m talking about… i’ve been battling compression quality and frame sizes like there was no tomorrow. my software kept trying to convince me that 720 x 480 has a 16:9 ratio, which in very much in fact doesn’t. i also came across a codec setting in which the aspect is set to square pixels (1:1) opposed to a ratio of pixels (16:9) which even i’m not 100% aware of what that means.

basically, there’s no way for me to explain the stress and frustration that i’ve gone through in order to make my videos look clean on the internet, and i am (oh my goodness) so ecstatic to say that for the most part i have mastered the art of compression to the best of my abilities, to a point that is satisfactory and doesn’t make my videos look like somebody spilled a glass of water on them before i posted them.

so, all this to say, i finished my kinetic typography video, added an animated logo at the end, and posted it to it’s cleanest of all clean settings and i am so freaking happy to share it with everyone… i wish you could understand the extent of my joy right now.

without further ado… cast your cares on – youtube and vimeo

and also right in front of you…
