Derek’s stag party: the music video

(Here’s another entry along today’s theme, “catch-up day”.)

For those of you with fast connections, I present to you Derek’s Stag, The Music Video! (7.1 MB QuickTime movie).

It’s made of the 41 photos I took during his stag party from two Saturdays ago, assembled into a photo-montage and set to the tune of Dynamite Hack’s cover of Boys in the Hood. The photos in the montage are in chronological order and span the time period from 5:30 p.m. Saturday night, where we started at the Park Hyatt rooftop bar, to 2:30 a.m. Sunday morning, where we were in line to get into Toronto’s most notorious speakeasy, The Matador.

The video is safe for work, but there is some swearing in the song. Remember, it’s an Eazy-E rap number!

The video took me all of one minute to make using iPhoto. I have yet to see a Windows-based solution that’s as elegant. Cool stuff like this is one of the reasons that I “fired” Microsoft.
