Hey guys!
This week I finished the meme remix project. I decided to base my meme off of the new Miley Cyrus music video for Wrecking Ball. This video made many headlines for its provocative scenes of Miley riding a wrecking ball nude and barely clothed. I thought It would be interesting to remix her video with old videos of her as an innocent child, a growing teenager, and also popular youtube videos. I tried to mix the young videos of Miley in with the scenes of the video that are more ‘PG’. As the video becomes more revealing I mixed in videos of her saying goodbye to being Hannah Montana and some comedic youtube videos with phrases that relate to the music video.
In Pd I created a complex patch that has several sub-patches. The patch is interactive with an Xbox controller. In the beginning of the video I have included my main patch. I also give a preview of one of the sub-video patches and the main Wrecking Ball video patch. I have created this patch so that when a sub-video plays the Wrecking Ball video pauses and then resumes when the other video is finished playing. You will be able to see and hear this in the video.
I was unable to record a decent video of me using the controller but here are a list of the buttons that correspond with the meme:
X-starts Wrecking Ball Video
Y-plays top right
B-plays bottom middle right
A-plays bottom left
Right Bumper-plays bottom middle
Left Bumper-plays bottom right
Start-plays bottom middle left
Back-plays top middle
Up (Directional Pad)-plays top middle left
Right Stick Click-plays top middle right
Left Stick Click-plays top left
There is no specific order in which the buttons have to be clicked but this is my favorite remix!
I really enjoyed making this patch, however I never want to listen to this song ever again after how many times I have replayed it this week. I hope you enjoy!
