The Friday Videos

Happy Friday!

We made it! We’re making it! We can make it!

And! It’s video time!

Exclamation points!!

Shot on iPhone 12 — Everyday Experiments. Get creative at home.

These are actually some super creative experiments you can try using really any camera.

Great ideas! I was sceptical. The results looks like CGI.

What Happens When A Freerunner Loses His Phone? w/ Jason Paul

“The moment freerunner Jason Paul is dropping his phone from a roof is when a spectacular hunt through Hamburg, Germany begins.”

More than the outstanding stunt jumping, check out the editing!

Really well done.

Shamelessly promoted by Red Bull

How to Make the World’s Best Paper Airplane

“John Collins, also known as ‘The Paper Airplane Guy,’ teaches us how to fold and fly our very own version of his ‘world record’ paper airplane.”

That record, which still stands, is 226 feet, 10 inches.

There’s an additional video where he talks about general aerodynamics as well.

Being 10 in 2020

“Every ten-year-old kid goes through big changes, all while simultaneously learning to navigate and understand the wider world. By nature, this makes them incredibly resilient and adaptable. Their resilience might give them an edge when it comes to taking on the huge shifts happening in 2020, from COVID-19 to nationwide protests to a polarizing election.”

This is a moving short film. Also we should all look at this video again in 2 years.

Well hello there Friday folks!

Welcome to Friday! And your Friday Videos!

Are we ready?

Let’s gooooooo…

Animals With Autotune Compilation

You are welcome!

My cat always responds angrily to any video featuring pet voices. He didn’t move a muscle for this one, which indicates how weirdly mangled these voices are.

A Taste of Los Angeles

Created by Viennese filmmaking group “FilmSpektakel” [https://vimeo.com/filmspektakel] who have also made “taste of” hyperlapse videos of New York and (duh) Vienna. Beautifully done.

How Do We Know How Old The Sun Is?

You know what? That is an excellent question!

An illuminating short doc on this topic. Well done!

The Forgotten History of Home Video

“In this essay I will tell you about 15-30 years of home video history that you have never heard about from anyone, anywhere.”

Honest to god I found this very illuminating.

It might be a bit too nerdy but man: the tech we used to use feels like caveman tools now.

Well that’s the Friday Videos all wrapped up!

I hope your Friday is fantastic, and that your weekend will be relaxing and calm.

Happy Friday!

See you next week.

Kings Dominion Roller Coasters! Front Seat POVs!

Since it’s no longer Summer, and currently none of us can go to an amusement park, this is pretty great.

I miss rollercoasters. 🙁

Pretty stable photography. Obviously: caution if you have motion fatigue. It goes fast!

Hello friends.

For a change I have to take a break this week. I was having a hard time finding new videos to feature, and as time ran out I decided: This week will be a hiatus.

I’ll be back at it next week. Apologies for the absence of Friday Videos this week.

Stay safe! We’re gonna make it through this year. One foot in front of the other.

See you next week.
