A happy confluence of events inspired today’s Editor’s Note:
some funny YouTube videos, and a number of good howtos recently on
making movies on Linux. There is a lot of good Linux/FOSS video
software: movie capture, movie editing, and playback. Here is a
sampling.Making

is a first-rate introduction to Blender.I’m easily amused so these YouTube videos may not be as
hilarious to you. I love the “literal version” remakes and plan to
try my hand at making one someday. It’s harder than it looks;
things that seem screamingly funny among friends don’t always hold
up when they’re written down in a script. Enjoy, and have a great
weekend!Total
Eclipse of the Heart: Literal Video Version is one of the
all-time most popular YouTube videos. It should be, as it is
brilliantly written and performed.
Crazy Indian
Video… Buffalaxed! transliterates the lyrics just as they
sound, for example “You need a bun to bite, Benny Lava!” Check out
the groovy jacket moves by the handsome leading man at the
