Swine Flu

This seems a bit too topical not to post.

Watch 1976 Swine Flu PSA on CollegeHumor

btw:
normal flu kills 35000 people a year. Thats more than 600 a week. Piggy Flu has killed 159 so far this week. That is why im not worried yet. the only thing that worrys me is how the people are dying. people who die from normal flu are usually the young, old and unvaccinated. This flu is killing by way of what im guessing to be a Cytokine storm and thats affecting people our age the most.

The News

im way too amused by this!

100 Tons

Well since yesterday's vid link was a rather long one, i thought id give ya'll a shorter selection today.
Who doesnt love a nice explosion?

Man on Wire

Okay, I have not gotten to see this movie yet. But I've been wanting to for awhile, because it looks amazing.

Gorillaz

Okay, so I found this via psfk.com, and I cant embed it, but I still wanted to recommend it to everyone. Im sure everyone has heard of the band 'Gorillaz'. At the link is a a 1.5 hour long documentary about how they came to be. Its really interesting. http://www.babelgum.com/html/clip.php?clipId=3018011

And for those of you who don't know Gorillaz, then check out this music video by them:

Tribal Dance

Okay, saw this on TYWKIWDBI and i had to repost immediatly. I wish i could move like that.

Crazy Police Chase

Not gonna lie...this looks like fun!

Stand By Me

I like this. the around the world schtick reminds me of "where the hell is matt" but with a different twist.


Playing For Change | Song Around The World "Stand By Me" from Concord Music Group on Vimeo.

Mad World

I love the song Mad World, made popular on the Donnie Darko soundtrack (great movie, go see it) so therefore I am posting a trifecta of Mad World videos. The first one is the Tears for Fears music video, they were the original artists



And heres the artist that really made it famous, the Gary Jules version.



This last one is a performance by Adam Lambert, an American Idol contestant. Now, i dont watch the show, but i did find this, and it blew me away.

Zapping

Oh this is a fun video. and why sometimes its easier to just walk over to the tv.

High Ceiling

Another great short film.



Full Disclosure: I was the producer for this film. Therefore I think it to be great and worthy of posting here.

MORE - Mark Osborne

Very impressive animated short film by Mark Osborne.

MUTO - Blu

This video has made its rounds about the interwebspace a few times already, but I still had to post it because it is so amazing and i would hate for anyone to miss out on seeing it.


MUTO a wall-painted animation by BLU from blu on Vimeo.

Fox Hunting In the Winter

I find the natural world such a majestic place. Even in acts of violence and survival there is gracefulness. This clip illustrates that so much.

Waiting for Elmo

This is alot funnier if you have seen or read the play. Although...i kinda wish this all would happen in the show.



TYWKIWDBI

Felix Zenger

Impressive Beatbox, well done video.

Street Theater

If this does not make you smile, you must obviously not know how to smile.

3 vids today!

Well it looks like i feel a little behind in my postings, life got a bit busy, but here are three fun vids for you to take a looksy at.

This is just a bit of mindless fun:


Awesome Stop Motion Music Video:


Short Docu on a style of Graffiti:

20 Things to Do With Matzah

MonGay Night Football

Very funny video. Many of these guys other ones are worth checking out too.

Mom Said I could

This is the funniest commercial I have seen in a long time.

Kanye West - Welcome to Heartbreak

This is a very intresting video done in a way that mimicks glitches in digital video media.



KANYE WEST "Welcome To Heartbreak" Directed by Nabil from nabil elderkin on Vimeo.

Slideyman

This is just a fun little short film that i ran accross on youtube.

Where the Wild Things Are Trailer

Do you remember the book? Even if not, it looks to be a good movie.

We Live in Public Trailer

This is a trailer for what looks to be a very interesting documentary.

District B13

This is a clip from the french film "Banlieue 13". I love this action sequence, its all a foot chase, but utilizes the impressive techniques of parkour. David Belle, use no wires or computer effects to pull off these manuvers.

Peter Fox - Schwartz Zu Blau

Steet art, Catchy Tune, and Monkey People. Can't get better than this.

About

What is "Josh's Video Picks"? This is a spot for me to share with you the videos that inspire me. I'll try to post one a day, but I am sure that some days I'll forget, but thats the average that we are going for. What can you expect? Street art inspired videos will be a big mainstay, im sure, and music videos that really break the mold will show up here too.
