So I just spent an hour a little too deep inside my linker.
I wanted to compile a little C++ program using libavcodec, libavformat et al. (the ffmpeg stuff), but it just failed.
Solution: the evil C fundamentalists behind the libraries didn’t include the usual declaration of the calling convention that C++ needs when calling C libraries.
So one has to add them manually by surrounding the include declaration with extern "C".
extern "C" {
#include <libavformat/avformat.h>
#include <libswscale/swscale.h>
}
Now it compiles and links. It does segfault though, but that should be a problem on my part.
Zwei (nun ehemalige) Mitkollegiaten haben als Kunst-Facharbeit einen utopischen Kurzfilm
gedreht, wobei kurz
relativ ist, der Film dauert eine ganze Stunde und hat sogar noch Handlung!
Wir verhandeln gerade über eine Freigabe unter Creative Commons-Lizenz, demnächst auf diesem Server bzw. im P2P-Netz Ihres Vertrauens.
1999 movie by Jamine Babbit, who made the even odder Itty Titty Bitty Committee
in 2007, which I might post later, for comparsion.
This might be the most pink film ever produced. It’s actually only possible to watch this one, if you reduce saturation to 20%, and it’ll still hurt slightly.
By the way, the movie’s title doesn’t have the slightest relevance, the main character simply is a cheerleader, in the first two minutes, until she’s sent to the pink place.
It’s a classic. By some guy apparently named Stanley Kubric.
I just found this in our movie library, and didn’t find the time to watch it in 2D with sound. But the overview looks promising:
Banlieue 13, Luc Besson was involved in some way (which made at least some people watch it), it has no plot worth mentioning (which is no problem for the intended audience since there is a considerable amount of violence and a girl), but there are people jumping off buildings (which is cool), like the popular parcours
-videos.
Oh and they’re planning a sequel. Probably since they couldn’t do a remake for some reason…
Amazing movie, excellent camerawork and really long shots:
These skips in brightness are not in the movie, but due to my n00bness with ImageMagick, I wanted to brighten the images up, but it seemingly did some image-specific histogram-fiddling. Might correct that later.
Oh, look, it’s all black and white…
Just saw these film mosaics
on information aesthetics and thought I’d share my own version.

I give you: Tank Girl: In 2033, justice rides a tank and wears lip gloss.
There is no particular reason to this choice, just found it on my disk.
Each column corresponds to four frames of the original video, the color of each pixel is the average color of the corresponding rows of these frames. Apart from looking funky, this view allows you to see vertical movement (for example the rolling credits at the end) and cuts easier.
Each row shows 5120 frames (in case you wonder, the averaging program generates slices of 1024 frames), which should be 3.4 minutes.
I’ll release the toolset used (it’s not processing
, btw), it makes use of OpenCV, Image Magick and some shell script. That is, run it on your favorite Unix derivate. Soon.
And if I can spare some disk space, there will be more average images of more movies. Watch out for the moviehist tag!
