As though this were a virtual buffet, you have three options:
See The Remix in HD (If you have a newish Mac or maybe even a PC this should play)
See The Remix (If HD isn’t for you)
See The Remix On YouTube (Cause why not?)

That was FABULOUS! I really enjoyed the film and the commentary here.
Here’s an explanation of the elements we tried to include\touch on:
HD: Because its a commentary on future media, and how most physical mediums will give way to the successor of the internet, we used clips from HD trailers for new release or not-yet released movies–clips that were downloaded from the internet.
Mediums consuming mediums: In light of our medium-gobbling theme, we used the video medium to show how the other major mediums (comics excluded) can be manifested within it. We used text rendered into video, but also explored how different type faces can add meaning beyond the text itself. We used still images in the form of logos–which incorporate words–and the picture of the iPod. We used audio in four forms: music, sound effects, dialogue, and spoken commentary. Finally, we used live action video, “realistic” CGI (composited into live action footage i.e 10,000 B.C.), and animation.
Hopefully the combined effect was an example of the type of multi-media object that would live in the “super-medium” that we believe will emerge out of the internet.
