Guest Honey Emerald Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 an image just came to mind of people wearing home made crowns humping the floor with birthday cakes getting smashed all over and stuff... this could be the funniest birthday...
SaraM Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Actually my nephew and my niece are gonna say "Feliz Cumpleaños, Billie Joe" they are so cute! And I have a photo frame of Billie that I can show in the video, but I don't know! ideas???
DoodleBob Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Alright. My Green Day shirt is clean, so I was going to start filming...but then I realized that I had ordered two Green Day posters yesterday, so I'm going to wait until they get here. (Mainly for the use of Billie Joe's face. ) OH! I just realized my sister's trumpet isn't at school and will be at my house all week. I got an idea.
gerardsangel4977 Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 not really. it depends on what part you want to perform but I prefer the whole video because some may get left out.. but it's up to you It will make the editing a lot easier if most people do perform the whole song though, whether it's lipsynced, holding up lyrics, playing along, etc. Whatever they choose to do, if people submit the whole song, at least there is a guarantee that all parts of the song can be represented. Instead of just having a bunch of people doing the humping in the middle

Instead of just having a bunch of people doing the humping in the middle I like your point. It's a very good point. Oh well. it's still up to you guys I put all my current photos /videos for this (so far, idk if they are any good) on my photobucket in this album. Use as many or few as you like. Tell me what you guys think, I want to do something more epic with acting or lip - synced bits but I only have my little brothers camera and no one to help. Plus I should be revising, I have exams in 2 weeks and don't know any of it yet I'm predicted 3A's Procrastinating on GDC instead.... Downloaded it all dude please message me your full name and location
Florence Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 I've noticed that the most important points aren't mentioned in the OP (opening post) to make clear what people have to do for the video! atm people have to skip through 5 pages to get the basic info! This should be included in the OP: 1st : Make a video of yourself saying "Happy Birthday! " in your national language2nd: We chose the song "KING FOR A DAY/ SHOUT" (from Bullet In A Bible) Make a video of yourself lipsyncing or/ and of yourself holding a sign with the lyrics of both songs, or make a video of yourself holding a sign saying "Happy Birthday Billie Joe" etc. Be as creative as you want! For the previous collab videos (Kerplunk Anniversary Video...etc) uploading the files to sendspace and downloading them worked fine for everyone. [*]3rd: upload your videos to www.sendspace.com Once uploaded, you'll be given a download link. Send me this link to **e-mail address** Don't forget to write your name and location in the e-mail!
kseniya_undead Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Hey guys! Tomorrow I'll take an enormous poster with sing "happy birthday" and will make a small video with my friends! And more.. I think we need boys! more boys! boys! boys! boys! I wanna ask you again about only horizontal videos, because it will looking more accurate as on this video (Yeah, this video has done by me and my friend ) We can stretch along the perimeter all movies so we will have no skipping video in one size

Florence Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Hey guys! Tomorrow I'll take an enormous poster with sing "happy birthday" and will make a small video with my friends! And more.. I think we need boys! more boys! boys! boys! boys! can't wait to see your video! and YES! We definitely need more boys in the video boys! boys! boys! I wanna ask you again about only horizontal videos, because it will looking more accurate as on this video . . . (Yeah, this video has done by me and my friend ) We can stretch along the perimeter all movies so we will have no skipping video in one size I remember you guys! Your video got posted on GDA last year, right? To me the video looks fine. Most people use the landscape format (horizontal format) like you did for your video. So don't worry. Oh, I see. But your Collab video consists basically of photos. Stretching video files is kinda different, because there will be people with 16:9 video format and some with 4:3 format, you know. :/ and then we'd have to crop the 16:9 videos, which would look really weird. But don't worry about that! I'm sure the final video will be awesome, anyway.
DoodleBob Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Flo, I feel like you should be the vice president of this project.
greendaytodeathandback Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 So can anyone who asks to be, be in the video??
BJA TC MD Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Ok guys, I've taken a photo of the sign I made. I'll just post it here and you can use it in the video Also, I'm Jess from Australia if you need that
DoodleBob Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 So can anyone who asks to be, be in the video?? Yeah, I'm sure the song is long enough where everyone that makes a video will be able to be in it. Ok guys, I've taken a photo of the sign I made. I'll just post it here and you can use it in the video Wow! I love the drawings! They are really awesome!
BJA TC MD Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Wow! I love the drawings! They are really awesome! Thanks I will admit I traced the drawings
Drop Dead Hideous Posted January 24, 2012 Author Posted January 24, 2012 I agree too, some people're quite confused and still don't know exactly what to do I'll finalize the instruction on wednesday It's too harsh to keep on editing the first post

eastbayweirdo Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I think I'm going to participate in this. Ya only turn 40 once so... The crazy ideas are filling my head on what to do during the songs. Can we just do a happy birthday video or do we have to do both?
Elena Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 uhm one question: since there are a lot of ppl making vids with Happy B-Day signs in german (Alles Gute)...can i make a sign with Happy Birthday in my accent? ...i think it would be funny, cos i don't think that Billie (or anyone else) would understand that or would even know in which language it is ...in my region there are 2 main accents: franconian and upper palatinate....since in franconian it would just be Alles Gude, i'd like to take the upper palatinate accent, where it's Ois Guade
greendaytodeathandback Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Yeah, I'm sure the song is long enough where everyone that makes a video will be able to be in it. Cool, thanks I do have one last question though, what song is the one you're doing it to? Or are there a few songs?

Elena Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Franconian is mine, never forget about that!! :angry I think the idea is pretty funny! haha uhm..sorry ..i was born in franconia...and i play hockey there (even in the same city where i was bborn ) and i go to school there, so it's also my accent ...i just think that in this case it looks a bit like i wrote the word Gute wrong ...that's why i take the upper palatinate word for it hihi thanks
Florence Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Flo, I feel like you should be the vice president of this project. haha Yeah, thanks! my fingers are itching to organize a (b-day) collab video, too. I never did something like that but I guess it would be hella fun! I have awesome ideas for Tré's b-day. and maybe I get some ideas for Mike's b-day video. dunno If I'm still around on GDC in 10 years, I'll be organizing a "HAPPY 50th BIRTHDAY BILLIE JOE! video". :lol: I'll finalize the instruction on wednesday It's too harsh to keep on editing the first post Why can't you do it now? I think I'm going to participate in this. Ya only turn 40 once so... Can we just do a happy birthday video or do we have to do both? It would be cool if could do both. I don't know how many people are participating, maybe we need your video(s) to fill the 8,5 minutes. I do have one last question though, what song is the one you're doing it to? Or are there a few songs? the GDC majority decided on King For A Day / Shout from Bullet in a Bible.
greendaytodeathandback Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 the GDC majority decided on King For A Day / Shout from Bullet in a Bible. Oh my God, that is a brilliant choice!!!
WestboundSign! Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I'll film two more videos with a friend of mine on Sunday. Then I'll have 4 short videos which I'll send in then. Hopefully that's enough! I can't wait to start filming once again
