Video Blender
Mixing video signals by rewire S-VIDEO cables to get a mix of footage and a glitch effect
Pictures of the process
For the conversation I am going to have two "content not yet made" to be put on two different video sources (VHS,DVD+++) and then it will be talking by mixing and overlaying it by the control of the video feed.
Content can be
- Two text conversation between two people
- Two video conversation between two people (historical?)
- Two video conversation between content like ads, movies (Star Wars - Star Trek / Computer Conical - Techzilla? )
- VHS vs DVD battle, One feed is footage from a VHS player with Ads and the other showing ads of DVDs advertisements
- Scotch Video Tape Advert - Re Record Not Fade Away

Things are not working as expected, signal only work as ON/OFF, a dimmer don't work.

- 2. Make and record a video of a constant degrading VHS video with the over promising BUT catchy VHS ad
