Ani-MOTO

Make your own slideshow with music at Animoto.

AAC,MP3 AND AIFF. Differances?

AAC - is a standardized, lossy compression and encoding scheme for digital audio. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves better sound quality than MP3 at similar bit rates
 -----------
MP3 -is a patented encoding format for digital audio which uses a form of lossy data compression. It is a common audio format for consumer audio storage, as well as a de facto standard of digital audio compression for the transfer and playback of music on digital audio players.
 ----------
AIFF - is an audio file format standard used for storing sound data for personal computers and other electronic audio devices.

Song Used ---------Clash of Destiny by Mark Griskey (Star Wars The Old Republic Soundtrack)

AAC File Size - 4.5 mb
MP3 Good File Size - 2.2mb
MP3 Higher File Size - 2.7mb
***AIFF File Size - 23.6MB***

If the wanted to rip all my music to trade them i would probably go with AIFF. reason being if your computer does have a large amount of memory space it would be useful to have the most HQ sound you could get. and if i wanted to trade them i would simply convert them into mp3 for the person i was trading it to and put it on flash drive or external hard drive.

Beauty of Video Game Cinematics

Just wanted share some most amazing cinematic that i have seen from video games :) To Start off
                                                              Star Wars Force Unleashed




OK so i always have been a big star wars fanboy so i automatically loved this game. but what makes it so amazing it is just amount of realism in the cinematic is mind blowing. really have say the cinematography  crew that works on this game gets 5 stars in my book.

                                                            The Final Fantasy Franchise 
Never was a huge fan of the Final Fantasy franchise of games but i always really over impressed by there Cinematics. not only is art style like no other just sheer amount of things going on once must have been difficult to coordinate.



                                                                  World Of Warcraft
although the game looks almost nothing like it's cinematics. the cinematics that blizzard entertianment (makers of world warcraft) make are just all together astounding. reason being is not only do they impress with visuals but they have a movie like quality of suspense and audio. everything in their cinematics seems to come together perfectly without one thing out classing the other.

With A Twist




So. i would there been something on my mind for the longest time about stories in entertainment in general (movies,Video Games,books etc..). The thing in many stories there always comes a point where the stories takes all the sudden twist. My question is does a twist in a story make it a good story?

Some Examples

Just to summarize it
In the Bionic Commando the government takes the main charcter Nathan Spencer out of jail in order to quell a rebellion of former bionic soliders. the governement tell him that they would tell him what happened to his wife and where she is located. through a series of even the Nathan find out that his bionic arm is actually his WIFE!!. surprise

although it is a somewhat interesting it never really made any sense add on the fact the game it self was lackluster.
_________


The game starts out during a war between two sides the jedi and the sith lead by to men revan and Malak. in the beginning of the story revan is said to be killed after Malak betrays him and fires on his ship
In "KOTOR" the main character is newly recruited jedi and normally the council would train a person is already pass the a very young age most of council agreed that your a "special case". through the game your main objective is stop malak from finding a WMD called the star forge. 60 Hours later and 5 planets later of chasing malak you find out that revan never died and in fact the main character is revan

Altough the game had a really good twist it was good even without that sudden plot change. the twist at the end just made it better.
