StevieM Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I'm not gonna DARE watch this until all the kids are out of the suite! I KNOW I'm gonna be a giggling wreck in the corner.
X-13 Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Today we've let YouTube's auto captioning write our script for us (sort of). We recorded it, upped it to YouTube and then used the auto generated closed captions as our script for the 2nd shoot, with HILARIOUS RESULTS!!!! Actually, for once YouTube did a pretty good job with it's speech recognition (most of the time). I was going to to suggest doing this.
StevieM Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 And later, we can watch the auto-caption scripted video with the auto-captions - in a John Malkovich inside his own head kind of way.
round2it Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 can I have a load of socks. it will save on christmas presents 1
Gonk Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Just watched the video with the comedy gold script courtesy of YouTube. It reminded me of morning briefing in the staffroom.... I'd always been suspicious of the gibberish we get told, I guess now I know where it comes from! 1
hallb15 Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I was going to to suggest doing this. Great video @VeryPC Al, although you should have done it twice like Rhett & Link 1
sonofsanta Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Absolutely genius. The Balloon Approx! Sounds like a band name for a shoegazing indie bunch from Sheffield. Will has the hair for it, I suppose. (Speaking of which, aren't you lot long overdue to add him to your team page? How am I meant to do ridiculous Photoshops otherwise?) 2
X-13 Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) Great video @VeryPC Al, although you should have done it twice like Rhett & Link I think I linked the entire playlist in here before. (Speaking of which, aren't you lot long overdue to add him to your team page? How am I meant to do ridiculous Photoshops otherwise?) I also said this already. ...why is everyone copying me?

VeryPC Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) Great video @VeryPC Al, although you should have done it twice like Rhett & Link I watched those and thought they were really good, but I didn't want to steal their specific idea, so we stuck to the concept that we first thought of (been wanting to do this since Prize-a-day-May I think).

You are absolutely right about the team page - we want to get new photos of everyone in their lovely bright colourful VeryPC Polo shirts for the update too! Al
LeightonJames Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 What exactly goes on in the Very PC office. I am beginning to worry about Al. I have already posted about Fake and Gropy Al. I am sad to say that we have seen another disturbing side of Al in today's video. Look at what he confesses to: Al you need help!!! 1
VeryPC Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 ▲ Absolutely no rude thoughts crossed my mind when I said this! I promise. Al
Popular Post VeryPC Posted October 22, 2014 Author Popular Post Posted October 22, 2014 Hey hey hey! In a freak accident while making snuggle kits, Al and Will were crushed by ten million pounds of socks. The doctors arrived just in time to perform full body transplants. However, the only available donors were socks. So here they are putting on brave sock faces to reveal today's winner! http://youtu.be/eiFO6StRFm4 Congratulations! We will PM the winner shortly. Entries are still open until midnight Thursday 30th October, so PM you professional contact details (name, job title, place of work, address and email please) and sock size (REG UK mens 8-11 and up or SMALL anything smaller - they're stretchy!) to this account. See OP for T+Cs Good luck for the next draw everyone! Will 7
LeightonJames Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) THE. BEST. ONE. YET. Amezzing. The production values that went into this one were outstanding!! Oscar nominations for the Cameraman, the sound guy, Al Sock-inson and Will Heel-ey. On that note, Sock/Leg/Feet related names: Al Sock-inson Will Heel-ey Colin Mc-Calf-y (these are the only staff I know, sorry) Edited October 22, 2014 by LeightonJames Adding Sock/Foot/Leg related names for VeryPC staff 2
StevieM Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 More closed caption shenanigans. Are they selling scouts at the ferry-boat bake sale or somewhere else? And whom, exactly, did you pull inside of @VeryPC Al? 2
StevieM Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 *3 posts all day???? This must surely go down in history as the quietest VeryPC competition day EVER!!! (*Not including this one - before the pedants crawl out from the woodwork!)
hallb15 Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 *3 posts all day???? This must surely go down in history as the quietest VeryPC competition day EVER!!! (*Not including this one - before the pedants crawl out from the woodwork!) I think, but don't quote me, people might actually be doing some work for a change! I'm trying to avoid having to come into work over half-term next week so am trying to blast through my to do list...
VeryPC_Colin_M Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Yeah, where's the noise? I particularly enjoyed the bit in the vid where Al's fine moustache just fell off? Reminded me of myself when all I could do was grow a bum fluff beard for the England "back the beard" world cup thing. Had to be very careful washing my face unless I lost half my beard.

VeryPC_Colin_M Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 20 minutes to go before the bell sounds. Today I nicked the longest pencil I've ever seen off Dentino in purchasing. He has no idea it's me. Mwahahahhaa (and no he can't read this as he's not on EduGeek!)
StevieM Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) 20 minutes to go before the bell sounds. Today I nicked the longest pencil I've ever seen off Dentino in purchasing. He has no idea it's me. Mwahahahhaa (and no he can't read this as he's not on EduGeek!) I'm already into injury time! Just waiting for something to finish installing then I'm offski. One of my local bars is having a 10th anniversary bash tonight, with drinks reverting to 2004 prices. Should be a good 'un. Edit: @VeryPC_Colin_M, you've got to sneak the pencil into tomorrow's video at some point. Edited October 22, 2014 by StevieM 1
