For those of you who don't know, there's a whole unwritten subcategory on Youtube called Youtube Poop videos. These videos consist of various nonsensical topics that just take random subjects and distort them with audio or video techniques, and some Youtubers go as far to make their own stories with the distorted content. While some are incredibly easy to make, others take some very advanced techniques, like some of the techniques we're learning in class right now.
One of my favorite kinds of Youtube poop videos involves Michael Rosen, a children's story author who has videos of himself telling the stories. What makes him great material for Youtube poop videos is that he makes so many funny noises and faces, so some amazing imagery can be concocted. Some of them are absolutely hilarious, and this one in particular utilizes some notable editing techniques like keying, motion tracking, and even some forms of 3D animation. Sure the story can be strange and offbeat, but the editing is actually really well done. There was plenty of effort put into this, unlike a lot of other Youtube Poops on the web.
