A recent Slate article called YouTube for Artistes caught my attention after all the video viewing and making we've been doing. It's about Vimeo, a video-sharing site used by people who the Slate writer describes as "a high-art, film-buff set—the kind of people who, when making movies for the Web, pause to consider such virtues as cinematography, framing, music, and composition."
I watched some of the staff picks and definitely found some great videos that I wish I had seen before getting so far on my own video project. (I still really like mine, but the videos on Vimeo are really inspiring and creative.) I really liked this one because I found it extremely calming and I'm a fan of black-and-white artwork in general:

i love vimeo too. it's a great site!
ReplyDeletei just joined vimeo too (hmm, guess i need to make some videos now) and i love the vibe of this site and the people who use it. it definitely has a more artsy feel, but not in an exclusive kind of way. to me, it just seemed like better designed version of youtube with more impressive videos. now, i just wish there were a way for my "google reader" to tell me when particular users post new work (like it does for blogs). do you know if this function exists?
