Last night, late night, my bandmate Carnegie and I were working on yet another music video, this time trying to use Omnisio to splice loops together from youtube. Frustrated by our inability to add music to what we created, we searched through fliptrack and competitors with no luck. An hour later I come back in the studio and Carnegie has discovered Flektor, a startup recently bought by Fox Interactive, who own MySpace. Still in beta, this allows free editing of any online video clips you can import the url of, and the addition of music, effects, pictures, your own content and complete control of fades, animations, zooms and variety of other professional video editing services, all from within your browser. When we started looking at mashup websites using Flektor I was just blown away. Bottom line, I can't keep track of all these and be proficient in them, it's like needing a google to manage your google... But anyway, I digress, and I made a suitably analog logo for a lounge in New York (still in development, not confirmed, but I like this concept enough to show) to complement my growing digital frustrations.
