Apple + Modest Mouse
Posted by b | Filed under Video

While I’ve never been a huge fan of Modest Mouse I think this is a cool little thing they’ve got going on. They shot a bunch of footage in front of a green screen and have teamed up with Apple for a video contest. If I knew anything about editing video I’d try it out but it would probably end up dealing with robots and fire and more robots and maybe a disco ball somewhere in there for effect. This is what the Apple contest site says:
“Here’s what we’re looking for. Modest Mouse want a video for their new single “Missed The Boat”. They know there are tons of talented fans and video directors out there who have what it takes to put it together. So that’s where you come in.
The band has shot performance footage of the entire song on green screen from multiple camera angles. Footage is posted here for you to download. You, the director, can download performance footage, add your own digital assets, and make a video using Apple editing tools.
Use all of your own footage or use some of the band’s. It’s all up to you; just use your imagination.”
I wonder what you can win… because it doesn’t make that party very clear on the contest page. Also, there’s no entries listed either.
