Video Fun: A music video in one single take by Eytan and The Embassy

Web Watch has covered one-take music videos before, such as this LIP DUB.

And considering how hard it is to make a video in one take, the coordination involved, etc – doing one well is when we should take notice and remind people what videos are supposed to be about.

Video Fun: The Evolution of Music (twinkle, twinkle edition)

Parents everwhere struggle with listening to that old child-friendly music over and over, trying to find ways to stop going mad.

Maybe it’s not the song that’s the problem, but the way that it’s presented that’s the issue.  Maybe if you were able to take one of those ever-popular children’s songs that you absolutely couldn’t hear one more time, and heard what it would sound like when done in the style of the music of your generation (whatever generation you are from, that is).

Video Fun: Drunk Girl Voicemail

Drunk voicemail messages can be funny.

Well, perhaps not for the person leaving them – but for the person receiving them? Hilarious.

Now, the ones that get posted onto the Internet may or may not be staged. They may or may not be fake.  Ones that include a note of “hey, leave me a message at ###” are almost definitely fake, one would think.

‘Cause if it’s a real drunk voicemail, then you went ahead and posted your actual real-for-real phone number? That’s one of those THINGS YOU SHOULDN’T POST ON THE INTERNET.

Ah well. True love is blind.

Video Fun: How to eat a Live Octopus

What’s the strangest thing you’ve ever eaten?

Some people don’t venture far from their own personal comfort zone when it comes to trying new foods. It’s why any FOOD CHALLENGE episode of any SURVIVOR season is always so much fun, as we watch people who are much hungrier than they normally would be throw their inhibitions away to get something – anything – into their stomachs.

How to Take a Selfie

Web Watch learned this week that not everybody knows what the term SELFIE means.

As with many other Internet-related terms that kids use these days, SELFIE is just a shortened version of the real phrase, SELF-PORTRAIT.

That’s cray-cray, right?  (because saying “cray cray” is so much easier and faster than saying “crazy”. Silly kids.)

So we’ve all seen those CELEBRITY SELFIE shots, usually leaked out on Twitter or TMZ. Some are good, some are reputation-ruining, and others are just so awful that you have to wonder what was going through the celeb’s mind – not when they took the picture, but when they thought it was good enough to release for the world to see.

Update on Girls Gone Wild lawsuit

So a few years ago, Web Watch wrote about a woman who LOST A LAWSUIT AGAINST GIRLS GONE WILD regarding her appearance in a Girls Gone Wild video, even though she is on film saying “no, I will not do this”.

The jury said that there was “implied consent” just for Tamara Favazza being present in the bar where the filming was going on, regardless of whether she willingly removed her top on her own (which she did not do).
