My anti-war music video dedicated to Cindy's son Casey

[europegirl4jfk]

I created this a while ago and got it finally uploaded to Savefile.com. There are different versions (wmv and mpg, sorry no quicktime) and different sizes for broadband and dial-up. Feel free to share it with friends and/or use it on your website or blog.

1. Which is the hghest quality version?

Which is the hghest quality version?
The 18MB wmv, or the larger 38MB mpg?


Running out of Heroes Windows Media - higher quality(Filetype: wmv, 18.13MB)

Running out of Heroes 2 MPG video - high quality(Filetype: mpg, 38.27MB)

Running out of Heroes 3 Windows Media - lower quality(Filetype: wmv, 9.18MB)

4. The mpg version is the best quality

At least the best quality I could get. As I took clips from several movies, quality differs depending on the original source of the clips.

9. That's really good

I haven't heard that song before.
Who's the woman holding the photo?

In the mpg version, at 3:36 there's an audio glitch,
the sound cuts out for a fraction of a second.
I don't know if it's in the other versions.

10. the audio problem

yeah, I know about that. Unfortunately it's in my original mp3 version of the song and I couldn't find another one. Charlie Dore isn't that well known and this song is from an older album (1995).

The girl holding the photo is my daughter; I filmed her. I couldn't find a clip with a soldier's relative holding a photo and I didn't want to (mis)use someone's grief without their permission anyway.

2. Awesome song

and video.

5. I couldn't get this song out of my mind since the Iraq war started

I think it describes so perfectly the senselessness and insanity of war.

8. I'm glad you liked it

Well, I'm in Europe and there isn't much I can do for Cindy and the anti-war protesters from here. This is just my little tribute to their cause.

13. and a thank you for the kick,

I'd have missed it otherwise.

Too late to recommend, darn it. This deserves more coverage.

Beautifully done. Thank you, europegirl4jfk. I made an attempt at a tribute video, and can really appreciate the time and the emotional toll putting something like this together takes. You really do good work.

This is my (much smaller) contribution from last week:

Thank you again.

14. I wish this could be nominated for the "greatest". It needs to be there.

Watch it if you can.

:kick:

15. Yes, it does.

Extraordinary work. Tried to recommend, but it's too late.

Bad timing with all eyes and hearts understandably focused on the northern Gulf of Mexico coast right now.
